Hurricanes that form off the coast of Africa travel at about 10-15 mph. Given the distance from the west coast of Africa near Cape Verde to the Caribbean and the US east coast, a hurricane could make it to the Caribbean in as little as 9 days and to the US mainland in as little as 12 days. The average time would probably be a little longer.
