The tropical disturbance off the coast of South Carolina has developed into Tropical Storm Colin Saturday morning, according to the National Hurricane Center.

The convection near the center of the storm has become better organized overnight with winds reaching tropical storm strength.

Colin is being steered by an area of high pressure over the western Atlantic and moving northeastward where its expected to impact the coast of the Carolinas with heavy rain and gusty winds through the weekend.

A Tropical Storm Warning has been issued from South Santee River, South Carolina, to Duck, North Carolina, including Pamlico Sound.

Colin is currently being impacted by upper level wind shear which will limit further development and keep the worst weather on its east side. Colin will likely dissipate over the western Atlantic in a few days.
