The seventh hurricane of the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season formed early Friday morning.
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. —Tammy, as of 5 p.m. Friday, packs maximum sustained winds of 75 miles per hour and a minimum central pressure of 991 millibars. Tammy will bring hurricane conditions to parts of the Leeward Islands Friday night into Saturday.
The storm will then bring tropical storm to hurricane conditions to the U.S. and British Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico on Sunday. Heavy rain and storm surge will be the biggest concerns for the islands that deal with Tammy.On Monday, Tammy will be picked up by a trough and swung out to open Atlantic waters. Due to this motion, the system is not a threat to the continental U.S.
Those in Bermuda should monitor Tammy through next week, though as of Friday's forecast, Tammy looks to pass well to the east of the island. A disturbance appeared Friday afternoon in the Caribbean Sea off the coast of Panama. It has a very low chance of tropical development and is likely to move inland in Central America early next week.The 2023 season has officially seen 20 named storms, but whether it sees the first list for 2023 complete is still yet to be determined.
