Orlando, Fla. – How many systems can the National Hurricane Center track at a time in the tropics? How are you
The Hurricane Center on Monday is advising on Hurricane Paulette near Bermuda; Hurricane Sally, centered on the north-central Gulf of Mexico; Tropical Storm Teddy, located above the east-central tropical Atlantic; Tropical Storm Wiki, away from Africa; And two waves, one near Mexico and the other off the coast of Africa. The hurricane center was inspecting seven systems in the Mid-Atlantic until Monday afternoon. Final advice for that system was issued at 5 p.m.
None of the systems are a known threat to Central Florida in the coming days. Most of them either turn north before reaching the United States or pull from Sunshine State in the Gulf of Mexico.

The closest to Florida is Sally, who was upgraded to a Category 1 hurricane shortly after noon Monday. The latest advice from the National Hurricane Center showed that Sally’s wind speed increased to 100 miles per hour, making it a Category 2 hurricane on the Sapphire-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Sally is pushing west-northwest in the northern Gulf of Mexico at a speed of 6 miles per hour.
Navarre, Florida, has been warned of a hurricane for Morgan City, Louisiana. According to the latest advisory, Lake Pontchartine and Lake Mauripace, including metropolitan New Orleans, are also under hurricane warning. Sally has forecast a landfall to form as a hurricane somewhere in the hurricane warning area early Tuesday but before that there will be more rain in Central Florida.
“On the forecast track, Sally’s center will move to the southeastern Louisiana coast tonight and Tuesday and land in a hurricane warning area late Tuesday or Wednesday,” the National Hurricane Center’s latest advice said.
Hurricane Poulet, meanwhile, was heading north-northeast from Bermuda as a Category 2 hurricane at 15 a.m. Monday, with 105 miles of wind blowing, according to the hurricane center.
The next named storm would be Wilfred. After that, the NHC will use the Greek alphabet for any name storm.
