• Hurricane Ernesto has intensified again after briefly dropping down to a tropical storm, whipping up dangerous currents along the East Coast on its journey northwards.
• The hurricane, which originated as a small depression in the central Atlantic and strengthened to a hurricane by the time it slammed into Bermuda, briefly weakened back to a tropical storm after making landfall. However, it has now inched its way back up into a Category 1 hurricane.
• While the storm will pass hundreds of miles offshore of the U.S., its powerful winds are currently whipping up intense waves along the East Coast, and will continue to do so for several days.
