The state of Florida, which recently experienced the deadly hurricane “Milton”, may suffer again.
American hurricane observers have warned of the threat of an impending storm brewing in the Caribbean basin of Hurricane Patty and is likely to reach the United States.
The Daily Mail reports this.
“Next week, most of the winds will shift north and that will create a pocket of high ocean temperatures, lots of moisture and very little wind shear, which will be favorable for tropical cyclone development,” leading hurricane expert Alex DaSilva explained.
He said there are two potential paths the storm could take, one to the west and one to the north.
The westward path is unlikely to affect the United States, but it could hit southern Florida if the storm gains momentum over the next seven days.
This prompted the National Hurricane Center to slightly increase the probability of tropical storm formation in the next seven days.
At the same time, it was indicated that regardless of whether the hurricane forms, rough seas and heavy rains are expected in the Caribbean next week.
If Petty does move towards Florida, residents of this state will have to prepare for the fourth storm in the last three months, since the region was previously hit by hurricanes Debbie, Helena, and Milton in August, September, and October, respectively.
Recall that Hurricane Helena, which covered the southeastern United States, took the lives of more than two hundred people.
A powerful hurricane “Milton” reached the state of Florida, causing tornadoes, floods and flooding.
