Bermuda is preparing for a rare double threat as Hurricanes Imelda and Humberto churn in the western Atlantic . On Tuesday (September 30), Imelda intensified into a Category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 75 mph, located about 200 miles east of Cape Canaveral, Florida, and 755 miles west-southwest of Bermuda. Humberto, once a Category 5 storm, is now a Category 2 hurricane, positioned just a few hundred miles east of Imelda.
Bermuda is under a hurricane warning, facing a potential direct hit from Imelda after Humberto passes by to the west. Imelda is expected to strengthen further, possibly reaching Category 2 status with winds up to 100 mph by Wednesday evening. As reported by 6abc, the storms are generating dangerous surf, rip currents, and coastal flooding along the U.S. East
