US · Published Sep 24, 2026
• A developing nor’easter is expected to form east of North Carolina on Thursday, September 24, 2026, and Friday, September 25, 2026, before moving along the East Coast.
• The storm is being influenced by high-pressure systems near Bermuda and Lake Superior, which are creating a complex steering pattern.

Impact & Risks

The primary risks from this nor’easter include tidal flooding, particularly in back bays and coastal areas from New Jersey to Massachusetts, and heavy rainfall, with up to 3 inches or more expected in southeastern New England. Urban flooding is a concern in areas like Boston, Providence, and southeastern Massachusetts. Wind gusts of 40–50 mph are anticipated along the coast, with isolated gusts up to 60 mph possible. However, the strongest winds are expected to remain offshore. Coastal erosion and hazardous marine conditions are also likely.
