As we continue to monitor a weakening Tropical Storm Fay, a new tropical wave has been identified off the coast of Africa.
Here’s everything you need to know.
Tropical Storm Fay:
Tropical Storm Fay is weakening over the northern Atlantic Ocean, according to the National Hurricane Center.
Fay has maximum sustained winds near 50 mph, with higher gusts. The storm is located about a few hundred miles southwest of the Azores and is moving slowly toward the south at 5 mph.
Strong wind shear and dry air are expected to continue weakening the storm. Fay could become a post-tropical cyclone within a day or two.
No threats to land are expected.
