Well let's just hope this turns north and stays well off the coastline.

Hurricane Humberto rapidly strengthened Saturday to form into a Category 5, the highest category a tropical cyclone can be, according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC).
It’s the first time in 92 years that there’s been consecutive seasons where multiple Category 5 hurricanes have been in the Atlantic Ocean. The last time was in 1932 and 1933 during the Great Depression.
Humberto currently has 160 mph sustained winds and is located around 400 miles from the northern Leeward Islands in a north direction.
Hurricane Humberto originally developed Friday morning, clinching its status as the third hurricane and eighth named storm of the Atlantic season.
Humberto-generated swells will start to impact the northern Leeward Islands, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Bermuda over the weekend, which will cause rip current conditions and surf to be life-threatening, according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC).
Over the coming days, it’s expected that Hurricane Humberto will curve to the west-northwest or northwest, per the NHC.
The most recent track from forecasters has Humberto turning out to sea hundreds of miles away from the East Coast of the United States. . . . STORY CONTINUES AT LINK ABOVE
 
And Imelda is hot on the heels of Humberto

Could become a 1-2 punch to part of the East Coast of the US. Or could spin off harmlessly into the Atlantic.

Located around the central and northwestern Bahamas, Tropical Depression Nine strengthened Sunday afternoon into Tropical Storm Imelda, and it’s expected that it will intensify into a hurricane over the coming days while off the United States southeastern coast.
An upgrade from a tropical depression, a tropical storm is a cyclone that has 39-73 mph maximum sustained winds.
 
A real monster storm. I would hate to be on a cruise ship anywhere near this hurricane.
It amazes me how they predict the path. Not perfect but usually pretty dang close. And they predict it before it is even a hurricane.
