Storm Active: August 23-
Around August 15, a tropical wave emerged off of the coast of Africa into the tropical Atlantic. During the next week, the modest tropical wave plodded west across the Atlantic. It exhibited some spin on satellite imagery, but never developed a closed circulation. The system veered northwest around the 20th and missed the Lesser Antilles to their northeast. Conditions turned more favorable in the subtropics and the disturbance finally was able to develop into Tropical Storm Fernand on August 23.
The storm battled some mid-level dry air over the next couple of days and moved northward into a weakness in the subtropical ridge, passing well east of Bermuda on the 24th.
As of 11:00am on August 24, 2025, Tropical Storm Fernand had maximum sustained winds of 40 mph, a minimum central pressure of 1010 mb, and was moving north-northeast at 15 mph. For more up-to-date information and the latest watches and warnings, please consult the National Hurricane Center.
