Hurricane Humberto and Potential Threats to the Southeast U.S.
Hurricane Humberto has formed in the Atlantic and is projected to grow stronger, potentially reaching Category 4 status. As it approaches the U.S. East Coast, concerns are rising about the Fujiwhara effect, which could cause Humberto to interact with another developing storm, likely to be named Imelda. This dual threat may pose significant risks for states like Florida and the Carolinas, with forecasters monitoring a system designated as Invest 94L, which is expected to evolve into Tropical Storm Imelda. Increased wave heights have been observed in North Carolina as Humberto nears, and homeowners in the Southeast should prepare for possible impacts next week. The National Hurricane Center continues to track these systems closely, emphasizing the importance of staying informed as conditions develop.
