Jerry will brush the Leeward Islands with wind and rain, but most of the storm's impacts will stay out at sea.

Florida

Tropical Storm Jerry is currently moving westward in the Atlantic Ocean and is not forecast to impact the United States. The storm's projected path keeps it east of Bermuda and north of the Leeward Islands, with only minor effects expected for some Caribbean islands.

Residents of St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix may experience one to two inches of rain, while the British Virgin Islands could see two to four inches and wind gusts up to 60 mph. The AccuWeather RealImpact™ Scale rates Jerry at less than one, indicating minimal impact, even if the storm briefly strengthens to hurricane status as it passes north of the islands.

Tropical Storm Jerry to pose no risks to the U.S.

Meanwhile, in the Atlantic, we do have a named storm out there separate from the East Coast conversation. Jerry's on the map. Jerry is cruising west at 23 miles per hour, maybe moving a little north of due west now. Good news for us here in the U. S. We are not talking about any impacts from Jerry. You'll notice that the I path we're even staying east of Bermuda is going to be pulling barely north of the leeward islands. Now it's going to be a close enough pass that some of us will see an inch or two of rain in ST thomas ST john and ST croy. And then the British version of the storm is going to islands. 2 to 4 inches of rain coming your way. Something to stay up to date on. Some stronger wind gusts here as well. 40 to 60 MPH and 60 is that Accuweather local storm max and our Accuweather real impact scale rating for hurricanes less than one for this one. Thankfully, as the core of the storm, even if it becomes a hurricane as it makes the pass, we'll stay just off to the north.
