TS Karen is supported by TS Jerry from the north side which is expected to move close to Bermuda on coming Tuesday.

National Hurricane Center is tracking tropical wave that has just moved off the west coast of Africa that could also become a tropical storm as soon as today as it tracks westward

Furthermore, the third storm might get named Lorenzo, however storm is still being tracked by the center.
