Tropical Storm Rose forms hours after Tropical Storm Peter

ORLANDO, Fla. — Sunday was a day for tropical storm formation as the 2021 hurricane season saw its 16th and 17th named systems with Tropical Storm Peter and Tropical Storm Rose both swirling in the Atlantic.

Tropical Storm Peter formed in the Atlantic early Sunday morning with Rose following suit by Sunday evening.

As of 5 p.m. EDT, the National Hurricane Center said Tropical Storm Rose was located about 370 miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands moving north-northwest at 16 mph with maximum sustained winds of 40 mph. Tropical-storm-force winds extend out 35 miles, but the system is projected to head northwest into the open ocean with no threat to land.
