FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Three storm systems are present in the Atlantic, one of which is likely to become a tropical storm as it moves toward the eastern edge of the Caribbean Sea, forecasters said.
If a tropical storm forms from the system known as Potential Tropical Cyclone Two, it would be called Bonnie. It is expected to move over the southern Caribbean or near Venezuela’s northern coast in the next couple of days, according to the National Hurricane Center.
As of 8 a.m. Tuesday, the system was about 330 miles east of Trinidad, moving west at a fast clip of 23 mph. Its maximum-sustained winds were at 40 mph, with tropical-storm-force winds extending out up to 60 miles.
