Tropical disturbance near coast may become cyclone
A low pressure area southeast of Cape Hatteras could develop into a tropical cyclone but should not threaten Eastern North Carolina. Forecaster John Elardo says land impact is unlikely yet seas may rise and rip currents risk could increase over 24 to 48 hours. The National Hurricane Center cites an 80 percent chance of development as it moves northeastward.
