It's been less than 48 hours since an earthquake hit the east coast of the United states. Irene, the first hurricane to threaten the U.S. in three years, is on a course to rip through North Carolina on Saturday and continue up the East Coast. Forecasters Tuesday night said the latest National Hurricane Center projections have the storm over Cape May after midday Sunday. But hurricanes are known for their unpredictability.
"There’s a lot of uncertainty with the track right now. The center could be off the coast of New Jersey by Sunday afternoon," said Al Cope, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service’s Mount Holly office.
