THREE Hurricanes Threaten East Coast, Gulf

• https://www.prisonplanet.com

Hurricane Jose threatens islands already destroyed by Irma as newly-formed Hurricane Katia hovers over the Gulf of Mexico.

Before residents of Antigua and Barbuda could even survey the damage left by Irma, another hurricane warning was issued for Jose, which is, so far, following Irma's path but may later threaten the East Coast.

"A hurricane watch is in effect for Antigua and Barbuda and a tropical storm watch has been issued for Anguilla, Montserrat, St. Kitts, Nevis, Saba and St. Eustatius," reported weather.com. "For now, all residents of the Leeward Islands, including areas hard hit by Irma, should monitor for the latest on Jose's forecast."

"Many of these islands took the full brunt of Category 5 Hurricane Irma on Wednesday with winds gusting to over 155 mph."
