Multiple numerical weather prediction models project Josephine to continue along its predicted track. Check the interactive map above for updated path and uncertainty cone.
Based on track data, Josephine is expected to remain approximately 519 km from New York, with minimal direct threats currently anticipated.
Based on track data, Josephine is expected to remain approximately 577 km from Virginia Beach, with minimal direct threats currently anticipated.
Current forecast data is insufficient to determine direct impacts for Wilmington from Josephine. Please monitor future track updates.
Current forecast data is insufficient to determine direct impacts for Charleston from Josephine. Please monitor future track updates.
Projected rainfall totals of approximately 50-150 mm (2-6 inches) may occur in affected areas, creating risks of flash flooding and urban flooding.
Yes. Tropical systems carry abundant moisture, and outer rainbands can trigger flash flooding, river flooding, and urban flooding.
Adjust preparations based on the storm category and official advice. Secure outdoor items, prepare emergency supplies, keep backup power available, and follow official advisories.
Evacuation decisions must strictly follow official directives issued by local emergency management agencies. If an evacuation order is issued, evacuate immediately using designated routes. Do not rely solely on a single forecast model.
StormAtlas regularly updates based on publicly available data from international meteorological agencies. The latest data update was at October 22, 2026 at 12:52 AM.
Josephine developed over warm ocean waters under conditions of high atmospheric moisture and low vertical wind shear.
The forecast path integrates data from multiple international meteorological agencies and numerical weather prediction models (such as NHC, JMA, JTWC, and CMA) using ensemble forecasting methods to generate probabilistic forecast tracks.
