Track forecasts for Philippe and Rina were uncertain Thursday as forecasters noted the two tropical storms could potentially 'interact.'
No coastal watches or warnings linked to Philippe or Rina were in effect Thursday and there were no marked hazards to land, but meteorologists noted that the northern Leeward Islands, the U.S. and British Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico should"monitor the progress" of Phillipe. Tropical storm-force winds were extending outward for up to 60 miles from the center of Rina, and for up to 175 miles from the center of Philippe.
"Philippe remains a very disorganized and elongated storm," forecasters said, adding that"confidence is very low on the storm's position" and said it may no longer have a"well-defined center." Rina is expected to remain a tropical storm into next week,"though some of the regional hurricane models do indicate a faster rate of intensification during the next several days compared to the NHC," forecasters said Thursday.
The hurricane center noted that forecasting Philippe's path is"challenging," partially because of how close it is to Rina. "A complicating factor to this track forecast is the proximity of an area of disturbed weather to the east of the cyclone," forecasters said Thursday morning."Some models are still showing a binary interaction between the two systems, which will largely depend on the strength of each.
