Ranije je Centar upozorio da je „Lorenco“ veliki uragan, a očekuje se da će se polje njegovih tropsko-olujnih vetrova još više proširiti u narednih nekoliko dana“.
Zooming out— here’s a look at how large #Lorenzo is. About 700 miles wide in the cloud shield, with TS winds in 300-400 miles of that. There’s no hurricane on record that strong and large there- looks more like a WPac super typhoon pic.twitter.com/p9zOk7n1Ks

Ogromni oblaci „Lorenca“ nastaviće da se šire duž velikog dela zapadnih i severnih delova Atlantskog basena tokom narednih nekoliko dana. On će proizvesti opasne talase i struje.
Početkom septembra, uragan „Dorijan“ razorio je ostrva Grand Bahama i Abako, na kojima je poginulo na desetine ljudi, a blizu 70.000 je ostalo bez krova nad glavom.
