Tropical Storm Hanna forms
Tropical Depression Eight has quickly become Tropical Storm Hanna, a few hundred miles northeast of the northern Leeward Islands. Whether this will affect the U.S. isn’t known yet; earlier computer models had the storm recurving back out to sea — a so-called “fish storm” — but the latest runs, and the official forecast, curve it westward instead.
Meanwhile, the center of Tropical Storm Gustav has reformed southward overnight, bringing the storm to Jamaica instead of north between Jamaica and Cuba. Gustav is expected to intensify back to hurricane strength soon.
The new forecast track is accordingly west of the earlier one, bringing Gustav into central Louisiana, but much is still uncertain and pretty much anywhere on the Gulf Coast remains a possible landfall point.
Here’s the latest from the Associated Press.
