Tropical Storm Jerry is expected to strengthen into a hurricane as it forms over the central Atlantic Ocean.
According to the National Hurricane Center, the storm has sustained winds of 45 miles per hour as it moves towards the northern Leeward Islands.
Jerry is not expected to be a threat to the mainland United States due to an incoming cold front that will help deflect the storm out to sea.
Jerry is the tenth named storm of the 2025 Atlantic Hurricane season which has produced three hurricanes in just over two weeks.
Forecasters are also watching the southwestern Gulf for potential development, but it is not expected to threaten the northern Gulf Coast. Here's the latest from the NHC:
Southwestern Gulf:
A trough of low pressure located over the Yucatan Peninsula is producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. This system is expected to emerge over the Bay of Campeche later today, and some slow development is possible before it moves inland over southern Mexico late Wednesday or early Thursday. Regardless of development, areas of heavy rain and gusty winds are likely across portions of the Yucatan Peninsula, Belize, and southern Mexico during the next couple of days.
