The National Hurricane Center said “Jose is expected to produce high surf and life-threatening rip currents along portions of the U.S. East coast.”
On Sept. 15, 2017 at 9:30 a.m. EDT (1330 UTC), NOAA’s GOES East satellite captured a visible image of the Tropical Storm Jose northwest of the Bahamas. NHC noted that Jose is showing signs of becoming better organized. The low-level center is embedded well within a growing central dense overcast.
The NASA/NOAA GOES Project at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland created an image. NOAA manages the GOES series of satellites and the NASA/NOAA GOES Project creates images and animations from the data.
