TROPICAL STORM Maximum sustained winds: 35 kt (40 mph), estimated central pressure: 1012 mbar (hPa) Movement: SSW at 6 mph

For a tropical storm in the Tyrrhenian Sea.. a tropical depression located near Corsica and Sardinia strengthened into a cold-core tropical storm, and has been named "Audrey" by the FMC. It seems to be a hybrid subtropical/tropical storm, for having both tropical and subtropical characteristics, but it may also be considered a "neutercane type subtropical cyclone". Audrey briefly made landfall in the northern tip of Sardinia, near Santa Teresa Gallura, before moving southeast and remains stationary near the eastern coast of Sardinia. We expect Audrey to possibly either make landfall in the Sardinian province of Nuoro, or, turn east and possibly make landfall at mainland Italy. For now, we'll pick the first one.
