The Tropical wave that we've been watching over the past few days has developed overnight into a tropical depression 3, and quickly gathered strength to become the 2nd tropical storm of our 2006 season, Tropical Storm Chris.
A tropical storm warning is in effect for the islands of Antigua, Barbuda, Anquilla, St. Kitts, Nevis, Saba, St. Eustatious, St Barthelemy, St. Martin and St. Maarten. A tropical storm warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected within the warning area within the next 12 to 24 hours.
A tropical storm watch has been issued for Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the British Virgin Islands. A tropical storm watch means that tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch area generally within 36 hours.
At about 11 a.m. this morning, we should be under a tropical storm watch although this storm should pass us well to the North.
Here is the windfield and track as it stands now.
