The storm will pass northwest of the island, but will be near enough that hurricane warnings have been issued for its 65,000 residents. 

As the storm swirls, far off the U.S. mainland, it will produce choppy seas and rip current risks for East Coast beaches. 

By Saturday and Sunday, the hurricane will turn toward Canada, impacting Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. 

Even as this storm winds down in the coming days, the Atlantic hurricane basin remains active. 

As of Thursday morning, there are three disturbances identified that could eventually become tropical storms.

The current forecast tracks this system into the southern Caribbean by the weekend.
