Probably a "newbie" question - why are the Bahamas under a hurricane warning and NOT in the cone?



The Bahamas are going to get lashed by what we call the "upper right quadrant" of the storm. This is where the strongest winds are located in a hurricane. The cone only points to where the "center" of the storm will pass over, but doesn't dictate what locations will be affected by the outer parts of the storm.

When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center.
