ORLANDO, Fla. — Hurricane Erin is creating coastal concerns as it moves past Florida’s east coast. Erin is currently a Category 2 storm with winds of 100 mph. The tropical system is positioned hundreds of miles off the east coast, posing a threat to coastal areas with dangerous seas and surf this week.

Places considered neutral spaces by immigrants such as schools, hospitals and emergency management agencies are now suspect, and agreements by local law enforcement to collaborate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement make them more vulnerable, choosing between physical safety or avoiding detention.

Forecasts nudge Erin's likely path to the west, increasing the risks at U.S. beaches. Tropical storm conditions are expected in North Carolina's Outer Banks starting late Wednesday.

Hurricane watchers are eying systems in the Atlantic basin. One has a medium chance of developing later this week.
