In the tropics, Hurricane Lee has been tangling with wind shear, but it’s holding its own. At midday on Saturday, Lee’s maximum sustained winds were 115 miles per hour. Lee is forecast to slow down and strengthen slightly prior to a turn northward in a couple of days. Swells from the hurricane are already affecting portions of the Leeward Islands, Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, the Turks and Caicos, the Bahamas, and Bermuda. Much of the U.S. East Coast can expect dangerous surf conditions and potentially deadly rip currents this week.
Elsewhere, Tropical Storm Margot has also been battling wind shear, but it is forecast to become a hurricane, probably on Monday. Margot is expected to turn northward and remain in the middle of the Atlantic.
