Hurricane Dorian—now a Category 1 storm—lost some of its punch overnight but hit parts of North Carolina and Virginia, inflicting dangerous winds, flash flooding, and storm surges.
Earlier in the week, Dorian descended on the Bahamas, leaving at least 30 people dead in its wake, along with a trail of debris and devastation. It then targeted the southeastern coast of the United States, where it has so far been responsible for five deaths.
