Tropical Storm August 21, 2025 · Western Currituck, North Carolina
What the National Weather Service wrote
Although Hurricane Erin passed well offshore on August 21, the wind field was so large that northerly winds gusted to 30 to 40 miles per hour from 3 AM EST through 4 PM EST. A peak gust of 38 mph was observed at the Currituck County Airport ASOS around 5 AM.
The wider storm
The center of Hurricane Erin stayed several hundred miles east of the Middle Atlantic coast on August 21, 2025. However, due the extremely large size of the cyclone with an expansive wind field, tropical storm force gusts occurred over the Atlantic, Currituck Sound, and northeast North Carolina.
