Hurricane Irma may be gone, but the 2017 hurricane season clearly isn't done yet. Tropical Storm Maria has formed in the Atlantic and is now advancing on the same islands that took the brunt of Irma's wrath. The storm's forecast track, according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC), has it strengthening into a hurricane as it approaches the Leeward Islands early next week. Newly named Tropical Storm #Maria expected to strengthen and affect portions of the Leeward Islands as a hurricane. As if all this weren't enough, another Tropical Storm named Lee is lurking in the Atlantic behind Maria, slowly but ominously moving to the west.
