New tropical depression expected to become tropical storm today
Associated Press
A tropical depression that formed in the southwestern Caribbean Sea
was expected to become Tropical Storm Beta today.
The system was not expected to threaten the United States, according
to the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
At 1 a.m. CDT, it was located about 85 miles south of San Andres
Island and about 150 miles east-southeast of Bluefields, Nicaragua. A
tropical storm warning has been issued for the entire Caribbean Coast
of Nicaragua and the islands of San Andres and Providencia.
Its maximum sustained winds were near 35 mph and was moving northwest
near 4 mph. Up to 20 inches of rain were possible across western
Panama, Costa Rica and Nicaragua, forecasters said.
If the system becomes a tropical storm � which will happen if its
maximum sustained winds reach 39 mph � it would become the 23rd named
storm of the Atlantic hurricane season, extending this year's record.
The previous record of 21 named storms had stood since 1933.
