Atlantic storm off the coast of Savannah

Three weeks before the Atlantic hurricane season officially starts, there is a first named storm of the season--Andrea. It’s churning about 135 miles southeast of Savannah right now, but forecasters think it won’t have much movement, and will fizzle-out over the next few days near the coast. Yesterday at Tybee Island, 5-foot waves and 26 mile per hour wind gusts were recorded.

It’s not expected there will be much relief from this storm in trying to help douse the wildfires in southeast Georgia and now parts of Florida.
