Conditions are already deteriorating along the Gulf Coast. Isaias will drive life-threatening coastal storm surge, and spread rain, winds into the Southeast.
We have the maps you need to monitor the tropics, including Tropical Storm Rachel and Hurricane Simon in the Pacific and Hurricane Isaias in the Atlantic.
In the 60-year modern era, never before have we waited until October for the first Atlantic Basin hurricane, until Isaias. 2026 could still set another record.
The Pacific continues to warm and could turn historic, having widespread impacts on hurricane season, temperatures, rain and snowfall this fall and winter.
