Tropical Storm Arthur Forms Off Florida, An Early Start To Hurricane Season

May 17, 2020

Tropical Storm Arthur formed off the southeast coast of Florida Saturday night, over two weeks before the official start to the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season.

It is no threat to the North Escambia area.

Arthur is expected to track offshore of the southeastern United States, perhaps skirting the North Carolina Outer Banks by Monday. Forecasters expect that the strongest winds will remain to the eastern side of the storm  – out in the open Atlantic.
