ORLANDO, Fla. — Tropical Storm Odette, which formed Friday evening off the mid-Atlantic coast, is forecast to bring strong winds to the northeast U.S. and Canada as a post-tropical cyclone later today, the National Hurricane Center said.
As of 11 a.m., Odette was located 235 miles southeast of Nantucket, Massachusetts, and 460 miles southwest of Halifax, Nova Scotia. Odette is moving northeast at 17 mph with 45 mph sustained winds. As of now, it’s not expected to impact land but could create life-threatening surf and rip currents along the northeast U.S. and Canada.
“On the forecast track, the center of Odette will pass south of Atlantic Canada on Sunday and Monday,” forecasters said.
