What Tropical Storm Erin's Path Shows as Atlantic Ocean Braces for First 2025 Hurricane
Erin is the fifth named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season, which began on June 1NEED TO KNOW Tropical Storm Erin formed in the Atlantic on Monday, Aug. 7, and is expected to strengthen into a hurricane The storm is heading west and is expected to be located just north of the Caribbean by the weekend Forecasters with NOAA have predicted there will be anywhere between five and nine hurricanes this seasonTropical Storm Erin has officially formed in the Atlantic, and it could become the first hurricane of the season. The tropical storm formed on the morning of Monday, Aug. 11, and has maximum sustained winds near 45 mph, according to a public advisory from the National Hurricane Center (NHC) in Miami. Erin is currently moving to the west at about 20 mph, and forecasters say the storm is expected to continue in this direction 'for the next several days' as the storm gradually strengthens. Intensification will apparently be slow to start, but Erin could intensify more in the coming days, according to a forecast discussion published by the NHC. In fact, forecasters suggest Erin may become a major hurricane within the next five days.

Currently, Erin is located about 280 miles west-northwest of the Cabo Verde Islands and just over 2,300 miles east of the northern Leeward Islands, according to the NHC. By this weekend, Erin is forecast to be located just north of the Caribbean. Meteorologists with The Weather Channel said the odds of Erin making a direct impact with the East Coast of the United States are currently low. However, they said, 'it's too early to rule out any possible track scenarios next week.' Erin is the fifth named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season, which began on June 1 and runs through Nov. 30. As of Wednesday, Aug.7, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicts there is a 50% chance of an above-normal season in the Atlantic, down from the 60% predicted ahead of the 2025 hurricane season. NOAA forecasters predict there will be between 13 and 18 named storms with five to nine of them becoming hurricanes, two to five of which could be major — about the same as predicted before the season began. The average hurricane season sees 14 named storms, seven hurricanes and three major storms, according to NOAA. Read the original article on People
