Hurricane Rina is spinning off Mexico’s Caribbean coast and is expected to impact the Yucatan Peninsula by Thursday. 

After that, some forecast models have the system heading east.  But, Michael Brennen with the National Hurricane Center said there’s still a lot of uncertainty in the forecast track.

“Folks in southern Florida should still be paying attention to Rina as we go through the work week – it’s still something that could impact the keys and south Florida as we get into the weekend but it’s too soon to tell if there’s going to be a direct threat,” he said.

Rina is currently a Category 2 hurricane but it’s expected to get stronger. This is the time of year when hurricanes typically form in the Caribbean – hurricane season officially ends Nov. 30.
