High probability for Tropical Cyclone Six to become tropical storm today

Posted: Tuesday, August 10, 2021. 9:43 am CST.

By Rubén Morales Iglesias: The United States National Hurricane Center (NHC) says Tropical Cyclone Six has a high probability of becoming a tropical storm as it moves through the northeastern Caribbean today.

At 6 am on Tuesday, August 10, Tropical Cyclone Six had sustained winds of 35 miles per hour and was located at 16.0 North and 63.1 West. Overnight it passed through the Lesser Antilles.

The NHC said that tropical storm conditions are expected to affect parts of the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico by Tuesday afternoon and the Dominican Republic by Wednesday. It also advises that heavy rainfall can cause flash, urban, and small stream flooding and potential mudslides in those areas.

Hispaniola, the Bahamas, and Cuba should expect wind and rainfall impacts later this week.

When it becomes a tropical storm, more than likely tonight, it will be named “Fred”.
