Nicole intensifies into Hurricane in Atlantic. Could end up "dancing" with Matthew and hit FL again

Nicole is expected to remain south of Bermuda, with the island experiencing rough surf conditions over the next few days.

Matthew is expected to eventually head back into the Atlantic after making its way up past Florida, Georgia and South Carolina.

As a result, it could cross Nicole's path, which would see both storms interacting with one another, according to the Palm Beach Post.

Such an interaction is called the Fujiwara effect, named after Japanese meteorologist Sakarei Fujiwara, where two tropical cyclones less than 900 miles apart orbit each other, closing the distance between the circulations of their low-pressure areas.

Depending on the size of the two, one could simply be absorbed by the other. But if they are of a similar size, they two would 'dance' around each other.

They can then circle back and hit Florida again.
