SOURCE: NHC – Tropical Storm Bret has materialized over the Central Atlantic, prompting concerns for the Lesser Antilles.
At 5 PM, Bret was positioned near latitude 11.3N longitude 42.2W, approximately 1,191 miles east-southeast of Antigua and Barbuda, as well as the Leeward and British Virgin Islands.
With maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 km/h) and a westward movement at 21 mph (33 km/h), the storm demands careful attention.
The minimum central pressure stands at 1008 MB (29.77 inches).
On its current trajectory, Bret may approach or pass south of the Leeward Islands by late Thursday or Friday.
This trajectory carries the potential for heavy rainfall and strong gusty winds. The precise impact will rely on the system’s intensity, size, track, and forward speed.
Consequently, within the next 48 hours or sooner, some islands may necessitate a tropical storm or hurricane watch.
Residents are advised to finalize their hurricane plans and be ready to activate them with little notice.
It is crucial for all individuals residing in Antigua and Barbuda, as well as the rest of the Leeward and Virgin Islands, to vigilantly monitor Tropical Storm Bret’s movements.
Additionally, ensure that hurricane plans are in place.
