2014-10-17 78

Hurricane Gonzalo is barreling it's way toward Bermuda.

...A Category 3 storm that forecasters say is one of the strongest ever to threaten the Atlantic islands.

Swirling around 150 miles south-southwest of Bermuda, Gonzalo has weakened slightly, but is still packing winds of 125 miles per hour.

...Winds that are whipping up the ocean and forcing most islanders to stay indoors.

Gonzalo has already wrought destruction in the Caribbean. The National Hurricane Center says Bermuda is next.
