Palm Beach, FL – President Donald Trump’s prized Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida is potentially sitting directly in the path of Hurricane Dorian, which is forecast to become an extremely destructive storm.

The resort, which is currently closed for the summer, is on the wealthy barrier island of Palm Beach. During the cooler months, Trump visits the property frequently and has held several high-level meetings there with world leaders.
The National Hurricane Center’s most recent track for Dorian places Mar-a-Lago in the crosshairs of a possible Category 4 storm with winds of almost 140 mph (225 kph).
Still, the resort dates from the 1920s and has seen more than its share of hurricanes in the past. It was originally build by cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post, with the main mansion containing 126 rooms.
