Tropical Storm Lee forecast to become ‘extremely dangerous hurricane’ by weekend

Tropical Storm Lee has intensified into a Category 1 hurricane and is expected to become a Category 4 hurricane by the weekend. The hurricane is predicted to impact the Leeward Islands, Puerto Rico, and potentially the East Coast of the United States.
The National Hurricane Center has warned that Lee could bring "life-threatening surf and rip current conditions" to the Lesser Antilles, British and U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico by the weekend. Even if the hurricane stays offshore, hazardous beach conditions are expected along the East Coast of the United States.
Lee is anticipated to be a hurricane well into next week, with wind speeds potentially topping 130 mph if it reaches Category 4. Residents are advised to review their hurricane plans and prepare for the storm's potential impacts. The 2023 Atlantic hurricane season is expected to be more active than average.
