On September 27, 2025, the National Hurricane Center is closely monitoring two tropical systems in the Atlantic: Hurricane Humberto, a powerful Category 4 storm, and Tropical Storm Imelda, which is expected to strengthen and pose a threat to the U.S. Southeast coast.

While Humberto is forecast to remain out at sea, Tropical Storm Imelda, currently located 110 miles south of the central Bahamas, is expected to strengthen into a hurricane by late Monday and approach the Southeast U.S. early next week. Imelda is predicted to bring significant rainfall, flash flooding, and potential river flooding to coastal Georgia, the Carolinas, and the southern Mid-Atlantic states.
