The Atlantic hurricane season runs each year from June 1 to Nov. 30. The most active time is late August into October, but it's possible to see a hurricane make landfall any time of the year.

Hurricane season 2024: 70% chance of tropical storm forming in next 7 days

Here's our latest update in the tropics where this is the main area that we're watching right now. It has a 60% chance of development over the next seven days. I would suspect though that that's going to get bumped up relatively soon as this continues to try and form in the Caribbean where this is likely to head right now. And just a disclaimer here too, that orange outline is where the center of the storm could form. This is not a track necessarily, it's not the forecast cone you might think of it is pointing in the general direction. I think this storm potentially could go as either probably a tropical storm or maybe a hurricane into the next seven days. So that's something we'll watch. It looks like the Gulf coast of Florida certainly needs to be on alert for that two other areas. There are none of which at this point is a major concern. 10% chance in the Central Atlantic and then farther southeast of that, about a medium chance at 40% currently.
