The first named storm of the season has formed in the Atlantic Ocean, the National Hurricane Center said Sunday, and could pose a threat to the Outer Banks by Monday.

Arthur has maximum sustained winds of 40 mph as of 8 a.m. Sunday, according to the NHC, but the storm is expected to strengthen as the day goes on.

The storm, currently moving north-northeast at about 9 mph, should stay “well offshore” the east coast of Florida, Georgia and South Carolina Sunday before moving closer to North Carolina on Monday.

A tropical storm warning is in effect in North Carolina between Surf City and Duck NC, as well as the Pamlico and Albemarle Sounds.

Arthur could generate 1 to 3 inches of rain in North Carolina by Monday and “life-threatening surf and rip current conditions across much of the U.S. southeast and mid-Atlantic coasts," according to the NHC.

In what is expected to be a busy hurricane season, Arthur has beaten the official start date of June 1.

This is now the sixth consecutive year that a storm has formed before hurricane season begins.

The first named storm of the 2019 hurricane season, Andrea, formed four days later than Arthur, on May 21.
