Tropical storm warning lifted for weary Bahamas


There's more trouble for the hurricane-ravaged Bahamas. Tropical Storm Humberto is threatening Grand Bahama Island, creating new worries for more than 2,000 people living in shelters and those trying to rebuild their homes after Hurricane Dorian. As of 8 a.m. ET, the storm was about 30 miles east-northeast of Great Abaco Island and about 145 miles east of Freeport, Grand Bahama Island, the National Hurricane Center said Saturday. Tropical Storm Humberto had maximum sustained winds of 40 mph and was moving northwest at 7 mph. A group organized by retired Navy Seals and the conservation group Sea Shepherd has been loading up supplies to send to remote islands that may be impacted by the approaching storm. Some residents remain frustrated at the government's response, especially with another storm on the way. Since most of the field teams come from private foreign aid groups, that's all the residents in hard-hit communities see.
