Subtropical Storm Don remains a weak and disorganized system over the waters of the Atlantic between Bermuda and the Azores. As of Sunday morning, Don is barely hanging on as a subtropical storm with maximum sustained winds at 40 mph. Dry air and cooler waters are keeping convection associated with Don limited and the system is expected to remain in an unfavorable environment for further strengthening in the short term.
Don is currently moving north at 7 mph and is expected to be steered east, then south in the coming days as it weakens and stalls. There’s a chance it could restrengthen when it moves over warmer waters later this week. Don will not impact any land.
Don is the only named storm on the map currently as Saharan Dust continues to suppress tropical activity across the rest of the Atlantic basin. No other storms appear on the horizon. The next name on the list is Emily.
