Donald Trump has insisted he is right - and meteorologists are wrong - over his repeated claim Hurricane Dorian could strike parts of Alabama.
Forecasters, including the governments own National Weather Service, were forced to correct the US president after he warned in a tweet on Sunday morning that Alabama would most likely be hit by the record-breaking tropical storm, which is currently devastating the Bahamas.
Alabama will NOT see any impacts from Dorian. We repeat, no impacts from Hurricane Dorian will be felt across Alabama. The system will remain too far east, the NWS tweeted.
Three other states Florida, South Carolina and Georgia are all ordering part or full evacuations of their coastal areas and North Carolina has declared a state of emergency, but there are no evacuation orders in place in Alabama.
