Even though Larry is forecast to remain well east of the United States, the powerful hurricane is expected to pass close to Bermuda and could make landfall in Atlantic Canada, AccuWeather meteorologists warn. But, impacts from Larry will be far-reaching even though the storm may stay hundreds of miles away from the Atlantic beaches from Florida to Maine.
Larry appeared as a very healthy and dangerous Category 3 hurricane on Monday touting a large eye and maximum sustained winds of 125 mph (205 km/h). The hurricane was moving to the northwest at 10 mph (17 km/h). As of Monday morning, Larry was located 950 miles (1,530 km) to the southeast of Bermuda.
Tropical storm-force winds of 39 mph (63 km/h) or greater extended outward from the center of the storm by 185 miles (295 km). The plunger effect of the rushing air on the water was creating large swells that were propagating outward from the center.
