MIAMI – Hurricane Danny has formed in the Atlantic, becoming the first hurricane of the Atlantic season.
Danny’s maximum sustained winds Thursday morning have increased to near 120 km and additional strengthening is forecast during the next two days.
The hurricane is centred about 1,755 km east of the Windward Islands and is moving west-northwest near 19 km.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center says Danny is a small storm with hurricane-force winds only extending outward up to 20 km from the centre.
The storm does not currently pose a threat to any land.
