Hurricane Imelda is accelerating away from the U.S. but strengthening on a beeline to Bermuda for later today, where it’s forecast to bring strong winds to 100-plus mph, flooding rains, and powerful and destructive waves.
Imelda became the 4th hurricane of the 2025 hurricane season early Monday as it began its anticipated turn eastward only about 250 miles off Florida’s east-central coast.
Tropical Storm Imelda formed Sunday afternoon just east of the southern tip of Andros Island in the northwestern Bahamas and continues to strengthen near Great Abaco Island in the northern Bahamas – about 200 miles east of southeast Florida – on Monday.
Tropical Depression Nine was set to become Tropical Storm Imelda, and Hurricane Humberto strengthened into a Category 5. Both are tracked to turn northbound and away from South Florida.
Tropical Depression Nine formed late Saturday morning over the southeastern Bahamas and is forecast to steadily strengthen into Hurricane Imelda by early next week as it approaches the coast of South Carolina.
Humberto rapidly strengthened to a hurricane early Friday and is forecast to ramp up into a formidable major (Category 3 or stronger) hurricane this weekend, but it’s the disturbance to Humberto’s west that’s expected to develop and threaten the southeast U.S. – likely as Imelda – by late weekend and early next week.
