VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Parts of Hampton Roads could see moderate to severe coastal impacts from two tropical systems, Tropical Storm Imelda and Hurricane Humberto, traveling off the East Coast.
Even though experts say direct landfall of the two tropical storm systems are unlikely, coastlines all the way up to Virginia could be indirectly impacted.
City officials in Virginia Beach and Hampton tell 13News Now they are preparing for similar impacts that came with Hurricane Erin in August.
13News Now has issued a Weather Impact Alert for Sept. 30 and Oct. 1, as Tropical Storm Imelda makes it way alongside the shore.
Virginia Beach city officials say measures are in place to minimize damage that comes with potential heavy rain, high winds and storm surge.
