Just in time for the end if Hurricane Season tomorrow!
Tropical Storm Epsilon formed Tuesday in the central Atlantic and could cause dangerous surf conditions in Bermuda over the next few days, forecasters said.
But the 26th named storm of the busiest hurricane season on record was not expected to hit land, according to forecasters at the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
At 4 p.m. EST, Epsilon had top sustained winds of about 50 mph, up 5 mph from earlier in the day. It could strengthen over warm ocean waters before hitting cooler waters that should cause it to weaken, forecasters said.
The storm was centered about 800 miles east of Bermuda and about 1,445 miles west of the Azores Islands. It was moving west near 8 mph.
The six-month Atlantic hurricane season ends Wednesday.
