Erin is the first hurricane to develop over the Atlantic this year, and meteorologists are closely tracking its path and forecast.

Storm Team 10 and the National Hurricane Center are tracking Tropical Storm Erin which has formed in the eastern Atlantic Ocean. Erin has become the first hurricane of the season and is now forecast to become a Category 4 by early next week.

Recent spaghetti models indicate that Tropical Storm Erin, which meteorologists warn has the potential to strengthen into a hurricane by Friday, is unlikely to directly hit the U.S. coast. Forecasters say Erin could develop into the first major hurricane of the 2025 season.
