The Atlantic Basin woke up after an almost three-week slumber. After Gabrielle, we're watching another tropical wave for development. Here's the latest.
Though the storm - expected to become a hurricane on Sunday - is not expected to reach the U.S. East Coast, the swells it generates may.
The center of Tropical Storm Gabrielle was located near latitude 20.3 North, longitude 51.7 West, moving toward the west-northwest near 15 mph. This motion is expected to continue over the next couple days followed by a northwestward turn this weekend. Maximum sustained winds remain near 50 mph with higher gusts.
