Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF:  Large swells generated by Epsilon will affect Bermuda, the
Bahamas, the Greater Antilles, the Leeward Islands, portions of the
east coast of the United States, and Atlantic Canada during the next

surf and rip current conditions.  Please consult products from your
local weather office.
