BALTIMORE – Less than a week after Helene made landfall in the United States, we once again keep our eyes out on the tropics. As of the 11 AM update on 9/30/2024, there are three named storms in the Atlantic basin and two areas of interest. The good news is all of the named storms look to pose no threat to us here in the United States and Maryland. The tropical waves, on the other hand, may eventually track toward the United States, but for now, the potential is low over the next two days for both.
