Hurricane Jose churned toward the U.S. Northeast and could cause swells along the coast by midweek, according to the National Hurricane Center, while Tropical Storm Maria is expected to become a hurricane later today and threaten already-battered Caribbean islands.

Jose was about 355 miles (571 kilometers) southeast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, at 11 a.m. New York time. Its path could put it well off the coast of New Jersey and New York by Wednesday morning, although it may weaken to a tropical storm again by then, the center said.
