MIAMI – Forecasters say a tropical storm warning has been issued for Bermuda as Jose moves over the Atlantic Ocean.

The National Hurricane Center in Miami says Jose was about 115 miles (185 kilometres) south-southwest of Bermuda on Sunday morning with maximum sustained winds of about 40 mph (64 kph). The storm was moving north at about 16 mph (26 kph).

Jose is not expected to change much in strength Sunday and should weaken on Monday.

Forecasters say tropical storm conditions are expected on Bermuda later this morning. Jose could bring up to 3 inches (7.6 centimetres) of rain to Bermuda, but projections currently show the centre of the storm remaining offshore.
