Powerful Hurricane Erin is expected to bring high seas, big rip currents, and rough surf as it moves between the United States and Bermuda.

Besides Erin, we are monitoring two areas of interest in the Atlantic Basin. Both are in the main development region of the Atlantic Ocean. The first has a 60% chance of tropical development over the next 7 days. The latest forecast track keeps this on a similar path as Erin initially, but a little farther to the east once it makes the turn.
Forecasters are monitoring two other tropical systems in the Atlantic Ocean on Aug. 19 as the heart of the 2025 hurricane season approaches.
