Earl
Hurricane Earl is currently off the coast of the Bahamas and getting ready to work its way up the Atlantic coast, Northwest, at 17mph, 28kph. It still packs a punch with sustained winds of 135mph, watch out Massachusetts, Marthas Vinyard, and Nantucket.
Here’s an up-to-date tracking image of Earl:
Fiona
Following behind Earl is tropical storm Fiona, currently about 185 miles north east of St Thomas, with winds of 60mph, 95kph. Fiona is moving northwest at 20mph and current projections put her along much the same track as Earl, albeit hopefully more to the east.
Here’s up-to-date tracking for Fiona:
Gaston
Heading across the Atlantic on its way to the Caribbean and eastern coast is tropical storm Gaston, the seventh tropical storm of the Atlantic Hurricane season. Moving west at 15mph, or 25kph, Gaston has sustained winds of 40mph and is not a threat until probably Monday.
