The category 3 hurricane is predicted to hit US east cost, along the southern and northern parts of North Carolina around Friday morning, Australian time. With winds up to 200 kilometres per hour, the hurricane is expected to bring copious amounts of rainfall, flash flooding, intense winds and the possibility of mudslides.
Wild weather has also been to blame for the cancellation of the endurance ride at the FEI World Equestrian Games. The humidity was climbing and the results from the vetting made it apparent that many horses were struggling to get their heart rates down, indicating that they weren’t travelling well in the smothering heat. This weather was as a result of local storms, not the hurricane - however Florence is expected to impact WEG in the next few days with heavy rainfall forecast. Written by Equestrian Life
