ORLANDO, Fla. — The National Hurricane Center has issued a tropical storm warning for what it’s calling Potential Tropical Cyclone Two approaching the southern Windward Islands, one of three systems with a chance to form into the season’s next tropical depression or storm.
The National Hurricane Center’s 8 p.m. advisory Monday said heavy rains and tropical-storm-force winds are likely to begin late Tuesday for islands in the Southern Caribbean. The system is currently located about 670 miles east of Trinidad with maximum sustained winds of 40 mph moving west-northwest at 18 mph.
A Tropical Storm Warning is in place for Trinidad and Tobago as well as Grenada and its dependencies, and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles from the system’s center. If it becomes named, it would be Tropical Storm Bonnie. The NHC gives it a 90% chance for formation in the next five days.
