Meanwhile, Bermuda faces a rare double threat from Hurricanes Humberto and Imelda, with Humberto now a Category 2 storm and Imelda potentially making landfall, bringing heavy rain and winds. The US has avoided a direct hurricane landfall this season, but the storms have reached major strength early in the season, highlighting increased rapid intensification due to climate change.
