Tropical Weather Update: August 24, 2025
Tropical Storm Fernand is slowly strengthening and should move across the open waters of the subtropical central Atlantic well east and northeast of Bermuda. Data from Air Force reconnaissance aircraft indicate that the tropical wave east of the Windward Islands (Invest 99L) does not have a closed low-level circulation. The system is expected to reach the central Caribbean Sea on Tuesday, where conditions are forecast to become less favorable for additional development.

Tropical Weather Update: Tropical Storm Fernand forms in the Atlantic
Tropical Storm Fernand has formed in the Atlantic. Fernand should follow a path similar to Hurricane Erin, avoiding a direct landfall to the US coast. Conditions are not as favorable as they were for Erin, so Fernand is expected to be an overall smaller system.

Tropical Weather Update: Hurricane Erin drops to "post-tropical"
Hurricane Erin has officially lost tropical characteristics and become "post-tropical" as it moves away from the U.S. East Coast and becomes a cold weather wind storm in the north Atlantic. Elsewhere, a tropical wave will likely become Fernand and will follow a similar path to Erin - avoiding any U.S. landfall. It's likely to be a much smaller system. Behind that, another wave should be slow to develop as it moves toward the Caribbean. Models are not showing it doing much just yet, but it's one to watch longer term.
