TS Lorenzo Forms in Central Atlantic

A wave that we’ve been tracking for the last few days is now Tropical Storm Lorenzo.

At 5 am Monday, TS Lorenzo was about 1095 miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands and was moving northwest at 17 miles per hour.  Maximum sustained winds were 45 miles per hour.

Lorenzo is expected to remain in the open waters of the Atlantic, making a turn to the north on Tuesday and then a gradual turn to the northeast.  While it’s forecast to strengthen, it’s uncertain if Lorenzo will become a hurricane.
