Many tropical forecasters expect Hurricane Matthew to loop back around toward Florida early next week. The system should be considerably weaker if and when it does.
Matthew is now a category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale. This dangerous storm is expected to move near the island nations of Jamaica and Haiti early next week.
Is there another tropical trouble spot following in the path of Hermine? The Hurricane Center is watching a tropical wave that could be in the Caribbean Sea next week.
Tropical Storm Hermine appears to be headed for a Florida landfall. Could the next system to affect the Gulf be rolling off the African Continent as we speak?
Tropical Storm Earl is expected to strengthen to Hurricane status later today. The storm is expected to make landfall late tonight or early Thursday morning.
