Hurricane Dorian Now Category 4 Storm, Approaches Bahamas, Florida

VOA News

   The U.S. National Hurricane Center said late Friday that "some
   additional strengthening is possible tonight and Saturday" for
   Hurricane Dorian, already a Category 4 storm.

   "Dorian is expected to remain a powerful hurricane during the next few
   days," the center said.

   The storm is moving toward the Bahamas and the U.S. state of Florida.

   "The core of Dorian should move over the Atlantic well north of the
   southeastern and central Bahamas tonight and tomorrow, be near or over
   the northwestern Bahamas on Sunday, and be near the Florida east coast
   late Monday," the center said Friday.
