Lisa Continues To Strengthen
Meantime, the season's newest tropical storm developed Monday in the Atlantic, and it's slowly gaining some strength.Tropical Storm Lisa is still a long way from any land. It's centered at 14.0 north, longitude 38.9 west or about 1,005 miles west of the Cape Verde Islands and moving west-northwest at about 12 mph.Top sustained winds are at about 60 mph. Little change in strength is forecast during the next 24 hours as the outflow from Karl creates shear on the system.Tropical storm-force winds extend outward up to 50 miles from the center. The official forecast track continues to show Lisa with a westward movement most of this week. It's a small system so far, but forecasters said any movement to the south might allow for more intensification.The National Hurricane Center in Miami says residents in the Caribbean should keep an eye on Lisa.

Karl is a major Category 4 hurricane and some fluctuations in intensity are possible during the next 24 hours.Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 70 miles from the center, and tropical storm-force winds extend outward up to 200 miles.Distributed by Internet Broadcasting Systems, Inc.
