Well, that was quick.
Tropical Storm Andrea just became the first named storm of the 2025 hurricane season—and she’s already on her way out. Formed in the central Atlantic with 40 mph winds, Andrea is cruising east-northeast at 17 mph and expected to fizzle out by Wednesday night.
No threat to Florida. No need to raid Publix. No reason to cancel your plans.
The National Hurricane Center isn’t tracking anything else right now, so we’re in for a bit of calm—at least until Barry shows up. That’s the next name on deck, and let’s be real: Barry sounds like the guy who brings a cooler full of fun to the block party.
For the record, the first named storm typically arrives around June 20, so Andrea’s timing checks out. Hurricane season runs through November 30, so while things are quiet for now, consider this your gentle reminder to start getting your plans—and snacks—in order.
