Hurricane Erin continued to track away from the United States on Friday, and attention is turning to two other potential storms in the Atlantic Ocean. The National Hurricane Center thinks both of the systems could become tropical depressions soon. And one seems to be on a path that those in the Caribbean will need to watch.

Hurricane Erin is entering the first stages of a post-tropical transition as it continues to move away from the eastern coast of the United States.

The International Space Station captured the unusually large storm as it swirled near the East Coast of the United States.

Volunteers from the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center search for sea turtle nests and to relocate turtles on Topsail Island, N.C., after Hurricane Erin battered the barrier island.

The Suffolk County Department of Health Services said Atlantic beaches in Suffolk County would remain closed to swimmers through Saturday morning due to hazardous rip currents from the storm that are expected to remain over the weekend. Earlier in the day, the department had said the closures would last until Saturday night.

A slow-moving cold front that helped protect the Eastern Seaboard from a direct strike by Hurricane Erin is now soaking parts of the South and Southeast, causing widespread flash flooding in Charleston, South Carolina and dampening the end of the week for many others.

The Long Lake wildfire in Annapolis County, N.S., remains out of control, but the Department of Natural Resources says conditions look promising to make progress before strong winds from Hurricane Erin hit the province.
