In the tropics, Tropical Storm Jerry has begun its more northward turn early on Sunday. At 5 am, Jerry was located near 25.0 North, 66.9 West, about 520 miles south-southwest of Bermuda. Maximum sustained winds were 65 miles per hour. Jerry was moving north-northwest at 12 miles per hour. Swells from Jerry have led to extremely rough surf and dangerous rip currents in portions of the Leeward Islands and Puerto Rico. Jerry is forecast to bring tropical storm conditions to Bermuda on Tuesday into Wednesday.
The wave just east of the Windward Islands has become Tropical Storm Karen early on Sunday. At 5 am, Karen was located near 11.9 North, 60.2 West, about 100 miles east of Grenada. Maximum sustained winds were 40 miles per hour. Karen was moving west-northwest at 9 miles per hour. Tropical storm warnings are in effect in Trinidad and Tobago, St. Vincent, and the Grenadines. Computer models indicate Karen will turn northward on Monday. We’ll watch its future progress.
Elsewhere, the wave just emerging off the African coast has a high chance of developing as it moves westward. We’ll keep an eye on it as well.
