Tropics: tropics
Tropical Storm Humberto has formed east of the Leeward Islands. It will track to the northwest, and will likely travel between the United States and Bermuda. More details are available in the CBS 6 Hurricane Tracker.
A strong tropical is located near Puerto Rico, and shows high signs of development. It will track northwestward towards the Bahamas, and then curve off the coast of the Carolinas. At that point, the model consensus is to turn the storm away from the Mid Atlantic, but a few computer models do bring it near or into our area. We will have further updates over the next week. If it develops into a tropical storm, it will be named Imelda.
Hurricane Gabrielle will track near the Azores over the next two days.
