A tropical storm has formed in the Atlantic, off of Cape Verde, Western Africa. This tropical storm, named Igor, is forecast to become a hurricane before the start of the weekend, heading west toward the Lesser Antilles next week.
The system has wind speeds of of 45 mph at the current time and is moving west at 6 mph. This is the speed of a sprint on a racetrack or a light jog.
Projections for this show a similar track as Danielle. A large trough coming out of the Western United States, bringing Los Angeles much cooler temperatures this week, will shift eastward. This eastward shift may turn the system more north after a good week of traveling to the west toward the Lesser Antilles.
Los Angeles residents that are planning to travel to the Bermuda Island area should keep tuned to further forecasts.
