Tropical Storm Humberto Forms in Atlantic as Another System Threatens East Coast

Possible outcomes include:

  • Invest 94L getting absorbed by Humberto
  • The two storms orbiting around one another (a Fujiwhara effect)
  • Invest 94L strengthening into Imelda and potentially threatening the U.S. East Coast next week

In the meantime, Invest 94L could bring up to 6 inches of rain to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, raising risks of flash flooding and landslides.

Late-Season Storm Patterns

With October approaching, the focus for storm formation shifts closer to land in the Gulf, Caribbean, and western Atlantic. Late-season systems often bring higher risks to populated areas, even though overall activity typically slows.

The 2025 season has produced seven named storms so far, fewer than the 1991–2020 average of 10 storms by late September. However, those storms have been notably intense. Hurricane Erin rapidly intensified into a Category 5, and Hurricane Gabrielle reached Category 4 earlier this week.
