In the tropics, Hurricane Tammy strengthened a bit on Wednesday morning as it moved northeastward, but things are about to change.  Tammy is forecast to lose its tropical characteristics and begin to weaken slowly while turning northwestward on Thursday.  Tammy will stall out east of Bermuda this weekend, as the system will be trapped between two ridges of high pressure that are building in.  Computer models are still not in agreement on Tammy’s track beyond that time, so we’ll keep an eye on it.
