Hurricane Igor closes Bermuda. Landfall tonight


(THE TINY RED DOT ABOVE IGOR IS BERMUDA) IGOR MIGHT PASS JUST FEW MILES AWAY FROM MAINLAND IF THE TRACK CONTINUES TO BLEND NORTH)

Atlantic's Major hurricane Igor is nearing Bermuda for a landfall ! Igor which currently is defined by NHC as Cat.1 with max sustained winds of 85mph and air pressure 949mb is expected to hit bermuda coast Sunday evening to night hours
Hurricane warnings are already in effect for Bermuda as Igor might turn to a Cat 2 from Cat 1 as per Bermuda Weather org. I also expect Igor to strengthen!

Igor still remains a large hurricane and enough to trigger severe winds,heavy rains, and storm surges. 39mph+ winds will blow. hurricane forced winds will arrive by 9-10 PM local time as Igor makes a landfall in few hours after that. Heavy rains and winds will continue near to 10hrs as Igor then passes away

Its a direct hit and nightime situation so people must watch out~!
