TNW News Hurricane Operations – Bolton Update
Saturday, September 27, 2025 – 1:00 PM CT
🌪️ Situation Overview
The TNW News Hurricane Operations Division continues to monitor Potential Tropical Cyclone Nine (PTC 9) as it tracks through the Atlantic near the Bahamas. Forecast guidance indicates that PTC 9 will likely strengthen into Tropical Storm Imelda later this weekend.
While the core of the storm remains offshore, Bolton operations are now fully engaged as part of our extended monitoring network. Our hurricane operations team has activated protocols to ensure both local and national readiness, mirroring the approach taken in Aurora, Springfield, and Tiffin.
📍 Local Relevance for Bolton
- Preparedness: Bolton’s role in TNW’s network is to provide redundancy and ensure continuous coverage if coastal bureaus experience disruptions. This means additional staff, equipment checks, and communication lines are on standby.
- Impact Potential: At this stage, there are no direct impacts forecast for Bolton. The activation is precautionary, ensuring seamless support for Southeast regional coverage should the storm track shift.
- Community Support: Bolton crews are preparing storm-specific graphics, advisories, and backup feeds for TNWWeather.com and social platforms to handle any surge in public demand for updates.
🧭 Forecast Outlook
- Weekend: PTC 9 strengthens over the warm waters near the Bahamas.
- Early Next Week: The system may approach the Southeast U.S. coastline as a strong tropical storm or hurricane.
- Uncertainty: While inland Georgia (including north and central areas) is not projected for direct impacts at this time, travelers heading to the coast should closely monitor updates.
