Watching the tropics. Tropical Storm Jerry has 65 mph winds. Moving NNW 6 mph. Tropical storm warnings for Bermuda. Jerry is forecast to diminish in intensity.
Lorenzo is off the coast of Africa with 45 mph winds. Forecast to become a Cat 3 hurricane with winds of 115 mph. Lorenzo is forecast to stay in the Atlantic. Fish Storm.
Karen is very disorganized. Now a tropical depression with winds of 35 mph. Forecast to head toward Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands where tropical storm warnings are posted. Likely Karen will be a depression when it approaches the Islands. It is forecast to intensify north of there and become a storm again. It is forecast to move north, and then possibly turn to the west as high pressure builds north of Karen. This will be one to monitor with the potential to head toward Lower Florida and maybe into the Gulf of Mexico, but this is very far out. It may not even survive moving over the Islands.
