The nor'easter is expected to develop on Saturday just off the Southeast coast and will likely churn up seas, deliver drenching coastal rain and whip up gusty winds from Florida through the Carolinas, mid-Atlantic and into parts of the Northeast. It could turn out to be a "full-fledged" and "rather significant" nor'easter, the Weather Prediction Center warned. read more

The system we have been monitoring (Invest 95L) over the tropical central Atlantic has developed sufficiently organized thunderstorm activity and a low-level center to be considered a tropical cyclone. This system is far from land, roughly 1000 miles east of the Windward Islands. An ASCAT pass from around 12Z showed peak winds between 35 and 40 kt, and based on that data, the initial intensity is set at 40 kt, making the system Tropical Storm Jerry.
