Erin Becomes the Atlantic’s First Hurricane This Year Here’s what to know about the storm’s projected path, and how it could change. Published Aug. 11, 2025Updated Aug. 15, 2025, 12:06 p.m. E Hurricane Erin is the Atlantic's First This Year - The New York Times Category 1 Wind speed 75 mph. Max. sustained Location E of San Juan, P.R. 653 miles away Direction WNW at 18 mph. Hurricane Erin is the Atlantic's First This Year - The New York Times Judson Jones Reporter and meteorologist Here is the latest on the storm. Erin became the first hurricane of this year’s Atlantic season on Friday, and it’s expected to continue growing stronger over the next few days, potentially even as strong as a Category 4. The hurricane is expected to bring heavy rain and strong winds as it passes north of the Caribbean islands over the weekend. And forecasters on Friday began to have a clearer picture of where they expect it to go after that, saying the likelihood of direct effects on the East Coast of the United States are “gradually decreasing.” But even as a direct landfall in the United States seems less likely, the threat of dangerous rip currents is increasing for the Atlantic coast into next week as the storm’s effects are felt far from its center. Here’s what you need to know. Forecasters remain cautious that the hurricane’s trajectory could still change, and have warned people to continue watching updates closely over the next few days. Tropical storm watches were issued for multiple islands in the Caribbean, and forecasters warned of heavy rain in the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. Forecasters at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said they expect it to be an above-average season, with up to 18 total named storms by the time the it ends in November. A typical season has 14 named storms. The Trump administration has slashed the number of employees at many of the agencies traditionally responsible for planning for and responding to natural disasters, including NOAA, the Weather Service and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. So far, it is unclear how those cuts might affect the accuracy of forecasts. The Weather Service may begin hiring again soon. nytimes.com
