Tropical Storm Jerry more disorganized, but could become hurricane again before threatening Bermuda


Tropical Storm Jerry more disorganized but could become hurricane again before threatening Bermuda - Orlando Sentinel. "The cyclone is still forecast to be near hurricane strength when it moves near Bermuda next week, and there is still a distinct possibility that Jerry will re-gain hurricane strength at some point during the next 5 days," forecasters said in the discussion. As the storm continues northwest today, it's projected to turn north on Sunday and then speed up on its way to Bermuda to the northeast early next week. Forecasters can't rule out additional weakening before the turn toward Bermuda, but current models have it regaining strength before then, but just barely with 75 mph winds projected by Wednesday. The NHC is also tracking several disturbances in the tropics. As of 2 p.m., the most recent development involves a disturbance predicted to move off the African coast this weekend. It has a 90 percent chance of becoming a tropical depression in the next five days. A disturbance in the mid-Atlantic region has a 60 percent chance of developing into a depression in the next two to five days.
