Hurricane Danny: second hurricane?

According to the U.S. National Hurricane Center  Tropical Storm Danny is gathering strength and is likely to be formed into the season’s second hurricane later in this week.

Previously in July 1997 a hurricane that  brought record rain fall for Alabama was named Danny. It was the only hurricane in the 1997 Atlantic hurricane season that could make a landfall in US.

That storm was the only hurricane to make landfall in the United States during the 1997 Atlantic hurricane season, at least 36.71 inches of rain fall was recorded on Dauphin Island.

AS per experts Hurricane Danny is expected to remain a Category 1 hurricane as it moves northeastward toward Cape Cod by Saturday evening. Danny will then quickly move across Atlantic Canada Saturday night into Sunday while weakening back into a tropical storm.

Presently the wind speed of Danny is 45 miles per hour and its eye is situated a at 450 miles east of Nassau and 775 miles south to southeast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (approx).

It is expected that while tropical storm Danny will move north over the warm waters it will gather much strength and perhaps will promote to a category 1 hurricane. However, Hurricane Danny will loose enough strength and shall turn down to a tropical storm within Sunday.
