NHC: Tropical Storm Emily may pass Florida coast on Saturday
Submitted by Special on Tue, 08/02/2011 - 9:49am.
Tropical Storm Emily is forecast to strengthen today as it approaches the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean Sea on a path that may take it past Florida’s east coast on Saturday.
Emily is about 265 miles southeast of San Juan, Puerto Rico, traveling west at 14 miles per hour, according to an advisory issued by the U.S. National Hurricane Center at 8 a.m. in Miami.
Emily has tropical storm-force winds of 40 mph and is still “poorly organized,” the center said.
