So now José is a designated Cat 1 hurricane.

No way, José!

With Katia also upgraded to Hurricane, that's four hurricane storms within weeks of each other.
 
And? Do you have a point? There were 4 major hurricanes in the US in 2004. A friend of mine lost his house in northern Florida thanks to George. I don't understand the point of your post.
 
I saw the movie. Burt Lancaster. "Jose Valdez is Coming".
 
Jose, having drifted northwards, slowly, and expected to dissipate in the middle of the ocean, is now vaguely drifting south eastwards at 5 mph with wind gusts of 75mph.

If it is going towards warmer waters, it might speed up again.

Jose has become a hurricane again, according to National Hurricane Centre today at 17:00 EST (GMT BST 22:00):

5:00 PM EDT Fri Sep 15
Location: 27.1°N 70.3°W
Moving: NW at 10 mph
Min pressure: 983 mb
Max sustained: 75 mph

TROPICAL STORM WATCHES POSSIBLE IN THE UNITED STATES ON SATURDAY..

It's moving North West at 10 mph wind gusts 90 mph Air pressure 983mb (Irma was as low as 913).

Co-ordinates 27 North and 70 West - so could mean heavy storms over Louisiana/Florida if it goes northwestwards?

Looks like its our turn, but these things never cause the damage here that they do in the south. I needed to trim trees anyway

I see from the link that TS Lee and TS 15 (Maria) are heading in as well.
Buckle up!

eta:
Lee expected to fizzle to depression by Wednesday
Maria expected to be a Hurricane by Tuesday

Woo...woo...woo,

Ma'am I pulled you over because I need to see your masters of science in meteorology.
 
Riptides predicted by the NHC.

5:00 AM EDT Sun Sep 17
Location: 30.0°N 71.7°W
Moving: N at 8 mph
Min pressure: 973 mb
Max sustained: 80 mph

...JOSE MOVING A LITTLE FASTER NORTHWARD WITH NO CHANGE IN STRENGTH... ...DANGEROUS SURF AND RIP CURRENTS EXPECTED ALONG THE EAST COAST OF THE UNITED STATES...

Its air pressure has dropped.

The European model has it dissipating over New Jersey.

Maria has strengthened and is threatening the Caribbean northern islands. Like Lee, headed to Mexico from the west, it is a relatively weak tropical storm.
