Subtropical Storm Josephine formed off the Atlantic coast as offshore systems could prolong rough surf and coastal flooding. At 5 p.m. EDT Wednesday, its center was 265 miles south of Nantucket, Massachusetts, with maximum winds of 65 mph, according to the article. A system near the Bahamas could bring large waves and rip currents from South Carolina to South Florida starting Friday. AccuWeather says a third storm could form near the southeastern US coast next week, while higher full-moon tides may add to coastal flooding.
