Tropical Depression TWO...perhaps Tropical Storm Bertha soon

I mentioned something was brewing in the Atlantic a few days ago... as of this morning that tropical wave is officially Tropical Depression TWO. At 5 a.m. this morning, the National Hurricane Center said this system was located about 250 miles south-southeast of the Cape Verde Islands. This system is moving west-northwest at about 9 mph, with maximum sustained winds near 35 mph. This system is expected to strengthen; if that is the case this system would be the second tropical storm of the season, Tropical Storm Bertha. We'll keep you updated on how this system may/may not affect the weather on Delmarva or any of your vacation plans.
