(New York, NY) — Hurricane Lee could become a Category 4 storm later today. The slow-moving Lee is currently out in the Atlantic bringing rip currents to Florida and the Caribbean but forecasters say it’s unlikely to hit the East Coast. By Wednesday the storm is expected to start heading north, parallel to the coast.
