Tropical Storm Florence Threatens East Coast



s of Monday morning, tropical storm Florence has strengthened as it has traveled across the central Atlantic ocean.

At 11:00 a.m. EST, the storm was reported to be moving west-northwest at 16 mph with maximum sustained winds of 65 mph, according to the National Hurricane Center.

At 1:23 p.m. EST, Florence was reported to be near the Cabo Verde Islands.

If Florence continues in the west-northwest direction, it will be a potential threat to the east coast of Florida and points north.

Though the storm’s winds have reached 65 mph, there was no mention of it becoming a hurricane within the next 10 days.

Within 240 nautical miles of Florence there are scattered and isolated rain showers and varying wind speeds.

There were no coastal watches in effect, but forecasters were continuing to standby in the event that it becomes more serious and advisories need to be issued.

Florence could continue to increase in strength.
