Tropical Storm Gabrielle Forms, Ending the Atlantic’s Strange Drought. It Could Become a Hurricane
Tropical Storm Gabrielle, the seventh named storm of 2025, could become a hurricane near Bermuda this weekend as it moves over warmer waters, with no immediate threat to the U.S. coast.
- On Sep 17, 2025 the National Hurricane Center named Tropical Storm Gabrielle at 11 a.m., locating it about 1,085 miles east of the Northern Leeward Islands and moving north-northwest near 22 mph.
- An African easterly wave spawned Gabrielle as it moved off West Africa into the eastern Atlantic south of the Cabo Verde Islands, with warm sea surface temperatures aiding development this weekend.
- Satellite and recon data show a poorly defined center with 1006 mb pressure and winds near 45 mph extending 175 miles, as the NHC states, `little strengthening is anticipated over the next 48 hours.'
- Forecast models show Gabrielle turning north and eventually tracking northeastward near Bermuda, steering it away from the U.S. East Coast; the NHC predicts it could strengthen into a hurricane over the weekend with no coastal watches for the continental United States.
- Roughly 60% of tropical activity occurs after Sept. 10, and NOAA and the Climate Prediction Center forecast above-normal activity through Nov. 30, 2025.
