Alberto forms
Tropical Depression 1 has now officially become Tropical Storm Alberto.
Maximum sustained winds: 45 mph
Minimum central pressure: 1003 mb
Alberto has already pounded Cuba with heavy rains. But he will probably be little more than a low pressure system in a couple of days, given the wind shear and dry air to the east and the relatively high central pressure. The center appears better defined than last night, but that and the warm waters it's sitting over at the only things going for it. Of course, last season, storms formed and even strengthened under worse conditions. Alberto will be over open water for at least two days. So we'll see.
