Tropical storm Henri likely to be hurricane before landfall

Storm Henri has strengthened to a Category 1 hurricane, and is bearing down on Long Island, New York, and southern New England.

It is expected to make landfall on Sunday, say forecasters.

The upgrade in status was released by the National Hurricane Center, who put out a warning of heavy rain, wind and flooding.

Henri was travelling further westwards than was originally expected, and looked on track to hit eastern Long Island. New York hasn’t had a direct hit from a major hurricane since Superstorm Sandy in 2012.

On Saturday morning, the storm was producing sustained 70mph (113kph), winds. Meteorologists have predicted that the storm will become a hurricane before it makes landfall on Sunday.

Both Long Island and Connecticut have been placed under a Hurricane warning ahead of the storm’s arrival. New York City and southern New York State are under a tropical storm warning, and Governor Andrew Cuomo has declared a State of Emergency.

Estimates show 300,000 could lose power in Massachusetts

Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker held a press conference Saturday ahead of Hurricane Henri’s landfall in the northeast US, expressing concerns that 300,000 people in the state could lose power.

“This thing may change again in some respects. I think one of the main points we want to make, though, is given all the rain we’ve had over the course of the past 30 days, the really significant amount of rain that’s going to come with this — no one disputes that — we do have the potential for significant power outages across the Commonwealth and people should plan accordingly,” Mr Baker said during the conference.

Hurricane Henri is expected to make landfall on Sunday near Long Island and Connecticut.
