The threat of double storm should release dangerous surfing along the American east coast

According to the National Hurricane Center, two powerful Atlantic storms threaten the east coast of dangerous surfing conditions.

Category 4 Hurricane Humberto swirls on the central Atlantic and hammered the beaches of the North Caribbean, Bahamas and Bermuda with high and fatal deadly rip currents, the NHC reported early on Monday morning. The forecasters expect these conditions to begin to affect a large part of the east coast today.

While Humberto follows the northwest towards the United States, the tropical storm Imelda gains in force at around 300 miles (483 kilometers) off the coast of Florida. This system will probably reach the status of hurricanes before 2 p.m. on Tuesday, reports the NHC. The forecasters expect Imelda to bring tropical storm conditions to the Bahamas and Cuba until Tuesday, creating a risk of sudden flood and mudslides. Large expanses of the south-eastern coast are also in danger of sudden flood while strong precipitation reach the United States

Significant land -free impacts

The NHC does not expect these storms to affect landing, but their combined impact could produce dangerous marine conditions and tear up the currents along the East Florida and Georgia is today. The National Weather Service has issued warnings on the wind of wind force, hurricane and Florida tropical storms in Massachusetts, because these conditions should spread quickly to the north.

That said, Humberto will play a key role in the preventing Imelda from hitting the east coast directly. The track towards the north of Imelda is currently led by a subtropical ridge, but Tuesday, the forecasters expect Humberto to weaken this ridge and cause the tropical storm to move away towards the east of the United States

Most at risk of coastal floods

The NHC expects Imelda throwing 1 to 2 inches of rain – with maximum local totals up to 4 inches – Tuesday across the northeast of Florida, the South Coastal Carolina and the coastal sections of the south -east of the North Carolina. This could lead to isolated flashes and urban floods.

“This storm is seriously fatal. Not just serious. Deadly Serious,” said South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster at a press conference, according to NBC News. McMaster said that the authorities attended research and rescue teams during the weekend. In North Carolina, Governor Josh Stein declared the state of emergency before Imelda even formed.

This storm is likely to produce 2 to 4 additional rain in the east of Cuba and 4 to 8 inches in the northwest Bahamas until Tuesday, which increases the risk of sudden flood and mud shifts, according to the NHC. While Imelda approaches Bermuda, 2 to 4 inches of rain could fall between Wednesday and Thursday.

So far this season, each Hurricane of the Atlantic – Erin, Gabrielle and Humberto – has reached a “major” force, but none of them has touched the ends in the United States if Imelda continues this trend, but it is clear that it will have an impact for the Southeast.
