Two storms fade, one is born
(Briefly) Hurricane Lorenzo has gone ashore in Mexico and has weakened to a tropical depression again after only a few hours at hurricane strength. Tropical Storm Karen, far out in the Atlantic, is also weakening. But hurricane forecasters say yet another area of stormy weather in the far eastern Atlantic has reached tropical depression status, with prospects for becoming the next named storm of the season.
Here is the latest advisory on Lorenzo, now delivering way too much rain in central Mexico. Here is the forecast track and the view from space. And here's some news from CNN on the storm.
Here is the latest on Karen, the forecast track and the view from orbit.
And here is the latest on brand-new Tropical Depression 14, which is expected to encounter cooler water and more wind shear in the coming days, which may weaken it. Here's the view from orbit. Next name on the list: Melissa.
