Hurricane Dorian has strengthened to a Category 3 storm as it barrels toward Florida, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) announced Friday afternoon, according to The Hill.
The NHC said the hurricane is expected to begin a “slower west-northwestward to westward motion” starting Friday night, meaning it could continue to strengthen as it makes its way to the US mainland. It is expected to hit the Florida coast by late Monday.
