In the tropics:
Hurricane Grace made landfall earlier today as a Cat 3 in Mexico. The first major hurricane of the season.

It has quickly dissipated - but may reform in the Pacific.

It would get a new name at that point.

Hurricane Henri is speeding toward Long Island with a landfall expected Sunday afternoon with winds of 80 mph.

Hurricane Warnings are in affect there and for parts of Connecticut.

Flooding from the storm surge and rainfall will be an issue.

The storm will quickly dissipate as it moves inland.

In the Atlantic, there is a tropical wave near the Azores that has a 10% chance of developing.
