Tropical Storm GABRIELLE
(Sep 11) TS Gabrielle is now west of Bermuda and tropical storm warnings have been discontinued. The storm is continuing its trek across the Atlantic with the next stop Canada. Tropical Storm warnings will be posted in a few days for Nova Scotia and other ports in that region.
(Sep 10) Winds, showers, heavy at times, and thunderstorm potential will continue to increase as TS Gabrielle makes its final approach to Bermuda. Tropical storm force winds are expected this evening and will remain into early Wednesday afternoon. Tropical moisture will linger through the end of the week with a few showers and mainly moderate winds. Radar imagery is now available. SOURCE: Bermuda Weather Service
A disturbance in the East Caribbean Sea has taken the traditional circular shape of a tropical cyclone and has become Tropical Storm Garbrielle. It is currently producing heavy rains in Puerto Rico and will threaten the Dominican Republic as well. The storm is forecast to take a north / northwest turn later in the week, heading towards Bermuda. This storm has the potential for impacting cruise schedules. We will monitor this storm closely.
