Ophelia made the transition from hurricane to post-tropical cyclone before reaching Ireland early Monday. Ophelia is bringing hurricane-force winds and dangerous storm surge to much of Ireland, and it will race into northern portions of the United Kingdom packing gale-force winds and storm surge late Monday and into Tuesday. On the other side of the Atlantic, the wave we’ve been watching (now north of Hispaniola) has a medium chance of developing into a depression before merging with a front by midweek.
