Florence Is Born...
* Tropical Depression Six officially became Tropical Storm Florence earlier today. That means that maximum sustained winds increased to 40 mph or greater.* Florence is a large system, which usually means that it will require a gradual organization trend before any significant strengthening can occur. Unfortunately, it does appear that that organization trend is happening now. Showers and thunderstorms are developing close to the center of circulation, and the satellite presentation of the system has improved today.
* STRENGTH: Sure looks like Florence will become a hurricane soon, and could very well become a major hurricane.
* TRACK: The official forecast calls for Florence to pass between Bermuda and the Bahamas, turning north and running parallel to the East Coast of the U.S. However, it is far too early to say this will not impact the East Coast - so if you have interests in that part of the country, stay tuned.
* HERE: Florence won't affect us, and our weather will remain tranquil over coming days. Highs in the 80's, lows in the 60's, with very small rain chances. Welcome to September!
