As it heads toward South Carolina this weekend, it’s expected to make landfall early Sunday as a low-end tropical storm
ORLANDO, FL – On Friday afternoon, Tropical Depression Three developed around 150 miles east of Jacksonville and is anticipated to intensify into Tropical Storm Chantal by Saturday afternoon.
A slow movement towards the north-northwest is expected to start later today, aiming for the South Carolina coast by Saturday night and early Sunday morning. The latest update from the NHC (as of 5 AM Saturday) reports that it currently has winds of 35 mph, with a slow north-northeast movement at just 2 mph, and a minimum central pressure of 1010 millibars.
While the storm isn’t expected to bring heavy impact, gusty conditions and rough surf will impact the Carolinas coast line through the weekend.
On a more positive note, no further tropical threats are predicted for the Atlantic. For those interested, the list of names for the 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season begins with Andrea.
