Tropical Storm Fernand started to weaken on Monday evening.\u00a0 At 11:00 p.m. EDT on Monday the center of Tropical Storm Fernand was located at latitude 36.1\u00b0N and longitude 56.3\u00b0W which put the center about 550 miles (890 km) east-northeast of Bermuda.\u00a0 Fernand was moving toward the northeast at 13 m.p.h. (21 km\/h).\u00a0 The maximum sustained wind speed was 50 m.p.h. (80 km\/h) and there were wind gusts to 65 m.p.h. 1095 km\/h).\u00a0 The minimum surface pressure was 1002 mb.<\/p>\n
Tropical Storm Fernanda started to weaken on Monday evening as it moved over the Atlantic Ocean east-northeast of Bermuda.\u00a0 Fernand moved under the southeastern part of an upper level ridge over the North Atlantic.\u00a0 The upper level ridge produced northerly winds that blew across the top of Fernand’s circulation.\u00a0 Those winds caused moderate vertical wind shear.\u00a0 The vertical wind shear caused the distribution of thunderstorms in Tropical Storm Fernand to become asymmetrical.\u00a0 Thunderstorms were still occurring in bands in the southeastern part of Fernand’s circulation.\u00a0 Bands in the other parts of Tropical Storm Fernand consisted primarily of showers and lower clouds.<\/p>\n
The circulation around Tropical Storm Fernand was small.\u00a0 Winds to tropical storm force extended out 80 miles (130 km) from the center of Fernand’s circulation.<\/p>\n
Tropical Storm Fernand will move through an environment that will be unfavorable for intensification during the next 24 hours.\u00a0 Fernand will move over water where the Sea Surface Temperatures are near 26\u00b0C.\u00a0 However, the upper level wind ridge over the North Atlantic will continue to cause moderate vertical wind shear.\u00a0 The vertical wind shear will cause Tropical Storm Fernand to weaken during the next 24 hours.<\/p>\n
Tropical Storm Fernand will move around the northwestern side of a high pressure system over the Atlantic Ocean.\u00a0 The high pressure system will steer Fernand toward the northeast during the next 24 hours.\u00a0 On its anticipated track, Tropical Storm Fernand will pass well to the south of Newfoundland on Tuesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
