This morning Jeanne and Karl are the two tropical storms being tracked.

Jeanne is moving along the northern coast of Hispaniola. This tropical storm is expected to strengthen again to hurricane status by Saturday before reaching the Bahamas. The projected track shows Jeanne making a turn to the west on Tuesday and heading to a possible landfall in the upper Florida coast or the Carolinas later in the week.

Karl is strengthening quickly in the Atlantic and is forecast to reach hurricane strength within the next twelve hours.

Ivan has been downgraded to a tropical depression. This system will be monitored as long as it remains a flood threat. Flash flood watches are in effect throughout areas of the eastern United States.
