Tropical Storm Danny formed in the Bahamas from a tropical low pressure area this morning. Danny is moving west-northwest at just under 20 MPH and may possibly strengthen to Hurricane Cat. 1 status within the next 18 to 36 hours. However, the upper level dynamics are changing hour by hour and Danny could remain only as a Tropical Storm.
Persons from southeastern Florida to the New England states along the US East Coast should monitor the progress of this storm carefully. Projected tracking and intensity could place Danny, as a low level hurricane, near the North Carolina/Virginia border Saturday morning, August 29. High surf, dangerous rip currents and lowlands flooding will preceed Danny as it approaches the US Coastline this weekend. While persons along the Gulf Coast will not be directly affected by this storm system, anyone with interests along the US East Coast should be watchfull of changing conditions.
