Titusville, Fla. - Hurricane Dorian battered the Bahamas on Monday, peeling off roofs and snapping power lines as rising floodwaters threatened to engulf houses, and forecasters said the storm would creep closer to the U.S. coast, where more than a million people were ordered evacuated.
The storm, one of the most powerful Atlantic hurricanes on record, was stalled over Grand Bahama Island, packing maximum sustained winds of 155 miles per hour and moving at 1 mph , the Miami-based National Hurricane Center said in an advisory at 11 a.m. EDT . Dorian was expected to pound Grand Bahama for much of the day.

Kind of anxious to get it over with,” she said. Hurricane Dorian is viewed from the International Space Station September 1, 2019 in a still image obtained from a video. NASA/Handout via REUTERS
