Storm Threat Increases for the Caribbean

The storm threat increases for the Caribbean, where a tropical storm or hurricane could develop as soon as this weekend. The strong tropical wave is bringing flooding to Trinidad and Tobago, and then it will move toward the ABC Islands. While in the central Caribbean, it will quickly develop into a tropical Storm (Hermine is the next name on the list). It could be just south of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands as it strengthens into a hurricane.

Jamaica and the Cayman Islands should take initial hurricane preparations and continue to monitor this closely. All areas along the Gulf of Mexico, including Florida and Cuba, should monitor the progress of this system.

This will all stay south of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and the Dominican Republic.

Thank you for sharing this channel to alert others of this developing storm. Thank you for your kindness! - Brian
