Fred forms, but unlikely to affect the U.S.
Tropical Storm Fred has formed in the eastern Atlantic, but if it's track is close to what the National Hurricane Center is projecting, it won't get anywhere close to the any large land masses. Meanwhile, the hurricane center is still monitoring the storm off the Carolinas, but it appears unlikely to develop into a tropical storm because of strong winds aloft. Nonetheless, it will dump some heavy rains on the coast and might spit a little moisture back our way while it's at it.
