Tropical Storm Danny is now in the Atlantic near the Dominican Republic. It is still weak but it could pose a risk to the Eastern seaboard of the United States as it moves north.

At 11:00 a.m. ET, the National Hurricane Center gave it a name, Danny. That time, it was about 445 miles west of Nassau in the Bahamas, and 775 miles south-southeast of Cape Hatteras, N.C.

Maximum sustained winds have reached 45 mph, the level at which a tropical depression becomes a named storm, and the system is moving toward the west-northwest at about 18 mph.

For now, tropical storm Danny is a medium-sized storm.

“Danny is expected to cause storm total rainfall of 2 to 3 inches, with maximum amounts of 4 inches over the central and northwestern Bahamas. Total rainfall of 1 to 2 inches is expected over the southeastern Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands,” the hurricane center announced.
