North Carolina: Potential Tropical Storm Imelda – September 27, 2025

Forecasters are currently monitoring Hurricane Humberto, which is forecast to remain over open water but will likely produce dangerous surf and rip currents along the East Coast, and a developing disturbance near the Bahamas (Invest 94L), which has a high chance of becoming Tropical Storm Imelda.
