Erin, the first hurricane of 2025 in the Atlantic basin, is expected to take a path between the United States East Coast and Bermuda next week bringing powerful seas and dangerous surf.

Hurricane Erin will continue to strengthen as it approaches the Leeward Islands and Puerto Rico, where it will threaten with tropical downpours, pounding surf and strong winds.

In addition to rounds of severe weather, portions of Minnesota and Wisconsin will face an increased flash flood risk through early next week.

The odds of a short-lived tropical depression or storm forming in the southwestern Gulf are lessening, but pockets of heavy rain could still trigger flash flooding.
