Tropics:

  • Tropical Storm Fernand formed just before 5 PM on Saturday 
  • Fernand is pronounced fair-NAHN
  • Fernand is located 400 miles southeast of Bermuda, so it’s far away from the U.S.
  • Fernand is not coming to the U.S.
  • Another tropical wave is moving toward the Caribbean, and there may be some development
  • Forecast models do not show this becoming a big, strong, long-lived system, but we’ll track it
  • Next named storm is “Gabrielle”
