Storm in the Atlantic Ocean could be heading towards the US
Tropical Storm Erin, currently in the eastern Atlantic, is intensifying and could become the first hurricane of the 2025 North American season as early as Wednesday.
This storm is considered unseasonably early for a potential major hurricane, with forecasters noting favourable conditions for its intensification.
While expected to curve northwest, preventing a direct hit on the northeast Caribbean, its periphery could still bring severe conditions to the US East Coast, particularly from North Carolina to New England.
AccuWeather has warned residents of Bermuda and the Bahamas to monitor the storm's progression closely.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicts an unusually active hurricane season for 2025, with Erin potentially being the first hurricane in this forecast.
