Tropical Depression #16 in the Caribbean...should become a tropical storm shortly...


Tropical Depression #16 has formed in the Caribbean and is close to tropical storm strength. It is expected to become Tropical Storm Nicole later today. The system is 160 miles south of Havana, Cuba and 370 miles south-southwest of Miami, FL. In Florida, a Tropical Storm Warning is in effect from Jupiter Inlet south to East Cape Sable and Florida Bay, and for the Florida Keys. A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect from north of Jupiter Inlet to Sebastian Inlet, and north of East Cape Sable to Chokoloskee.
This storm is expected to merge with the front along the East Coast and bring potentially heavy rain to central and eastern Virginia tomorrow night into Thursday. Stay tuned...
