"The #Dorian is now a Category 5 hurricane," the Miami-based National Hurricane Center (NHC) said in a tweet.

"The eye wall of this catastrophic hurricane is about to hit the Abaco Islands with devastating winds," he added.

The storm, which is moving slowly, is expected to remain on the Bahamas this Sunday and much of Monday's day, projecting up to 60 centimeters of rain in some areas and causing waves of 3 to 4.5 meters high, announced meteorologists.

The Bahamas are in a "very dangerous" situation, said Ken Graham, director of NHC, at a Facebook show, calling on residents to comply with local authorities' security measures.
