Meteorologists at the Miami, Florida – based National Hurricane Center are monitoring two areas in the Atlantic Hurricane Basin for signs of potential tropical trouble. One is near the coast of Central America while the other is in the open water of the Atlantic. When Hurricane Helene was making landfall in Florida, some extended forecast guidance suggested Florida could be hit by another Gulf system. While that no longer appears likely, these two areas being monitored could be a future threat to Florida and the U.S. at large in the coming days and weeks ahead.
