Tropical Storm Danny forms in Atlantic

MIAMI, FL The storm has top winds near 45 mph and is moving west-northwest near 12 mph (19 kph). On Wednesday evening, the storm's center was about 390 miles (625 km) east of Nassau, Bahamas, and about 735 miles (1,185 km) south-southeast of Cape Hatteras, N.C.

The current forecast has the storm on a path to clip the U.S. East Coast over the weekend, but a storm's track can be difficult to predict days in advance.

Meanwhile, far out in the Pacific, Tropical Storm Ignacio is weakening and expected to become a tropical depression as it moves northwest with top winds of 45 mph.
