In the tropics, the area of low pressure we’ve been watching became Tropical Storm Chantal late on Tuesday, but it’s in the open Atlantic and expected to stay there. At 5 am Wednesday, Chantal was located near 40.3 North, 53.7 West, and was zipping east at 22 miles per hour. Maximum sustained winds were 40 miles per hour. Chantal is expected to weaken into a depression within a couple of days as it meanders in the middle of the ocean.
