The current major storm of concern is Hurricane Erin (2025), which formed on August 11, 2025, in the Atlantic. Forecasts as of August 2025 indicate that Hurricane Erin is expected to turn northward away from Florida, meaning it is not expected to make direct landfall in Florida. However, Florida should still be alert for indirect impacts such as dangerous rip currents and high surf along the coast, particularly between August 18 and August 21, 2025. The hurricane's center is projected to stay offshore, but the broad wind field extends far enough to affect coastal conditions in Florida and other East Coast areas of the US during this period.
In summary: Hurricane Erin will not hit Florida directly but will bring hazardous surf and rip currents to Florida's coast around mid to late August 2025. There is no specific landfall date in Florida for this hurricane since the forecast track takes it away from the state.
