Depression Becomes Tropical Storm Josephine
Tropical Depression Eleven strengthened into Tropical Storm Josephine earlier today, and is now about 850 miles east-southeast of the Northern Leeward Islands. Winds are at 45 mph, and Josephine is moving towards the north-northwest at 16 mph.
Continued strengthening is expected over the next 36 hours, through Friday night. After that, wind shear, the change in wind speed and/or direction over a short distance, will increase, which will cause it to weaken.
