The Hurricane season in the Atlantic runs from July to November and so far even the best specialists were stunned to see there was no hurricanes in the Atlantic. The wait is over and the hurricanes are coming - with three already moving in the Atlantic - so i guess we can say that the hurricane season has really started now!
The most dangerous for the U.S is hurricane Florence which, according to the NHC, will hit the U.S North Carolina Wednesday evening, in 48 hours, and the NHC warns that it is a hurricane potentially more dangerous than it looks, specially considering that it arrives now in warm waters which is the "fuel" for a hurricane. The winds will be feel on Florida north-east coast and normally not in Orlando, but this works IF the hurricane don't change its path, which happen sometime, so keep an eye on it if you are at WDW.
The next hurricane coming right behind is hurricane Isaac and this one should move over the Caribbean Islands and then south of Haiti and Dominic Republic. But this is an area where hurricanes frequently and suddenly change their path so we may have some surprises with Isaac. Let's pray it won't hit Haiti which was hardly hit last year as well as many others smaller Caribbean islands.
The third Hurricane behind is hurricane Helen currently int the Atlantic Ocean west of Africa and this one is supposed to make a right turn on Wednesday so it shouldn't hit the U.S or Caribbean Islands.
This is just the beginning, and again hurricanes can still be expected during the next two months so make sure to check the weather reports if you'r coming to Florida!
