Fernand will move north-northeast in the Atlantic and will not impact the U.S. or land. However, Bermuda will be monitoring it as it will pass near the island. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward around 100 miles from the center of the storm.
The storm’s long-lasting and drastic impact caused significant damage to the North Fork Reservoir, which serves Asheville and other parts of Buncombe County. The boil water notice was lifted on Nov. 18, nearly two months after Helene’s Sept. 27 landing.
