Hurricane Bill's storm track should put it in the vicinity of Bermuda by Saturday, August 22, 2009, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center forecast.

Bill became a Category 4 hurricane early on August 19 and is expected to maintain that intensity for an unusually long period of five days or more, experts say.
