tropical storm Franklin 2017

Tropical storm Franklin is expected to have intensified into hurricane Franklin, the first hurricane of the 2017 Atlantic tropical storm and hurricane season, before it makes its second landfall on the Mexican coastline.

Hurricane season forecasts for the Atlantic basin have risen again, as two of the main tropical weather teams maintain and increase their predictions that the 2017 Atlantic tropical storm and hurricane season will see above average levels of activity, just as tropical storm Franklin threatens Mexico.
