As predicted by the NHC, overnight the disturbed area off the eastern seaboard has coalesced into sub-tropical storm Beryl, and is forecasted to impact the Northern Florida – Southern Georgia coastline late tomorrow.
Unlike a classic tropical storm, sub-tropical storms tend to have their heaviest winds and storms some distance from the center. Sub-tropical storms can sometimes transition into tropical storms.
Tropical storm force winds, heavy rains, and a surge tide of 1 to 3 feet is currently forecast, and residents along the coast and inland are being urged to monitor the storm and prepare for its effects.
For the latest updates, visit the National Hurricane Center website. You can follow the NHC on twitter at @NHC_Atlantic.
Beryl’s expected arrival tomorrow coincides with the first day of National Hurricane Preparedness Week, and if nothing else, should serve a good reminder of the value of preparedness.
To help you along, NOAA, FEMA, and the American Red Cross have released an updated preparedness guide for the 2011 tropical season.
