MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Administrators from West Virginia University and N.C. State monitoring the progress of Hurricane Florence plan to talk Monday regarding contingencies about next weekend’s football game in Raleigh.
After more than 48 hours as a tropical storm, Florence regained Category 1 hurricane status Sunday, showing sustained winds up to 75 mph as it rumbled in the Atlantic about 750 miles southeast of Bermuda.
The National Hurricane Center’s updated forecast projects Florence will strengthen into a Category 4 hurricane by the time it makes landfall Thursday night or early Friday morning near the North Carolina-South Carolina border.
