After making landfall late Monday in North Carolina, the center of Hurricane Isaias will move near or along the coast of the mid-Atlantic states Tuesday, and continue across the northeastern United States, according to a National Hurricane Center advisory. Isaias, which prompted evacuation orders in the Tar Heel State over the weekend, brought maximum sustained winds of 85 mph to southern North Carolina, the National Hurricane Center wrote. Isaias began the day as a tropical storm before strengthening into a hurricane hours before hitting the North Carolina coast. The storm could also spin up a few tornadoes, the hurricane center said. The tornadoes will be possible across eastern North Carolina into Tuesday morning and from eastern Virginia northeastward into southern New England during the day Tuesday. Tuesday marks the one-year anniversary of the mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio, that left nine dead and dozens more injured. Early in the morning on Aug.4,2019, a gunman opened fire in a popular entertainment neighborhood known as the Oregon District before being killed by officers. According to local reports, several events are scheduled to remember those lost and many businesses in the district will close out of respect for the victims’ loved ones.
