Forecasters track Hurricane Fiona, Tropical Storm Gaston, and Tropical Depressions 9 and 10 in the Atlantic

By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: Forecasters at the National Hurricane Center (NHC) are closely tracking Hurricane Fiona, Tropical Storm Gaston, and Tropical Depressions 9 and 10 in the Atlantic.

Powerful Fiona has once again strengthened to a category 4 hurricane as it heads toward Atlantic Canada. The center of Fiona will approach Nova Scotia later today, move across Nova Scotia and into the Gulf of St. Lawrence on Saturday, and then across Labrador and over the Labrador Sea on Sunday.

A dangerous storm surge could produce coastal flooding within the warning areas in Atlantic Canada in areas of onshore winds. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves.

Tropical Storm Gaston strengthens as it moves towards the Azores. Tropical storm conditions and heavy rainfall is expected over the Azores today and tomorrow.

Tropical depression 9 is forecast to strengthen over the Caribbean Sea, the NHC noted.  The center of the cyclone is forecast to move across the central Caribbean Sea through Saturday, pass south of Jamaica on Saturday night and Sunday, and approach the Cayman Islands on Sunday night and early Monday.

Forecasters say that Tropical Depression 10 that formed this morning over the far Eastern Atlantic is expected to be short-lived.
