At 5 am EDT, the center of Hurricane Alex was located near latitude 33.5 north and longitude 76.9 west or about 80 miles south-southwest of Cape Lookout North Carolina. This is also about 75 miles east-southeast of Wilmington North Carolina.

Alex is moving toward the northeast near 10 mph...and this motion is expected to continue with an increase in forward speed during the next 24 hours. On the forecast track...the center of Alex is forecast to pass very near the North Carolina Outer Banks later today.
