Atlantic storm activity is expected to keep hazards from the Carolinas to New England as Josephine moves toward Canada. AccuWeather says Josephine became the 10th named storm of the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season after developing tropical characteristics over the Gulf Stream. Through Saturday, it is forecast to bring rain and wind from southeastern Massachusetts into coastal Atlantic Canada, while rough surf and coastal flooding affect parts of the US East Coast. Another system near the Bahamas could raise the chance of tropical development next week, with impacts depending on its location and intensity, AccuWeather says.

00:00Atlantic coastal flooding could continue into next week, even as Josephine moves away.
00:05AccuWeather forecasts large waves from Florida northward along the southeastern coast starting
00:10Friday. Forecasters are watching two more areas where tropical storms could develop.
00:15Josephine became the Atlantic season's 10th named storm in 2026 after crossing warm water.
00:22Now moving toward colder seas, Josephine is expected to bring coastal rain and wind through
00:27Saturday. But another storm far offshore is not expected to affect the United States.
00:33Stormy weather near the Bahamas could strengthen coastal winds through early next week.
00:38Those winds could push more water ashore, increasing flooding during repeated high tides.
00:43The full moon will also raise tides this weekend into early next week.
00:47Tropical development near the Bahamas becomes more likely as next week progresses.
00:51But rough surf is expected to persist whether that system becomes tropical or not.
