Hurricane Season Begins: Southeast Coast on Alert as NHC Monitors Potential Storm

The Atlantic hurricane season has officially begun, and the National Hurricane Center (NHC) is already monitoring a potential area of concern off the Southeast coast. In an interview with FOX Weather, NHC Director Michael Brennan discussed the 2025 season, stating, "I wouldn't be terribly surprised if we saw a low chance off the Southeast coast pop up on the outlook sometime later today or tomorrow." Brennan emphasized that this location is typical for June storm formation. NOAA predicts 3-5 major hurricanes this season, prompting the NHC to urge coastal residents to prepare. The interview included visual risk maps, highlighting the importance of preparedness. This early warning underscores the need for communities to review their hurricane plans and stay updated on weather forecasts.
