Tropical Storms Humberto and Imelda are currently being closely monitored in the Atlantic due to their potential to intensify into hurricanes and impact areas from Florida to New England. The storms could pose threats to the Southeast U.S., the Bahamas, and Bermuda in the coming days, as indicated by The Weather Channel and the National Hurricane Center.
Humberto is forecasted to strengthen rapidly, possibly reaching hurricane status near Bermuda, while Imelda is expected to develop near the Bahamas.
The 2025 hurricane season has already seen active storms like Erin and Gabrielle, causing significant disruptions in various regions.
With Humberto and Imelda, the season shows no signs of slowing down, keeping homeowners on high alert along the East Coast.
NOAA’s updated 2025 hurricane season outlook predicts above-normal activity, with 13 to 18 named storms expected. A significant number of residential properties, especially in Florida, Texas, North Carolina, and other states, are at risk of damage from hurricanes.
Preparation is key for homeowners facing potential hurricanes, involving gathering supplies, securing insurance coverage early, and having an evacuation plan in place. Last-minute steps, such as boarding up windows and stocking up on fuel, are recommended as storms approach.
