Tropical storm Jose is expected to strengthen into a hurricane later on Friday, bringing “high surfs and life threatening rip currents” along sections of the United States east coast, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) said.
“Jose is moving toward the west-northwest near 8 miles per hour (13 km per hour). A gradual turn toward the north is expected later today and on Saturday,” the Miami-based weather forecaster said in its latest advisory.
