Hurricane Lee reaches major hurricane status again
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is keeping an eye on two systems ? Hurricane Lee and Tropical Storm Margot. As off 11 a.m. on Monday, Tropical Storm Margot was increasing in intensity and had maximum sustained winds of 70 miles an hour. It was moving to the north at 10 miles an hour. Weber says Margot will likely become a Category 1 hurricane, but will remain out to sea. Weber says Hurricane Lee has a concentric eyewall, which means there is one eyewall inside of another eyewall. He says that means it will go through eyewall replacement cycles and will fluctuate in intensity. He expects Hurricane Lee to begin making a northern turn Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, staying to the west of Bermuda. Weber says the east coast of the United States and Canada will likely get some effects from the system because it is so large.

Tropical Storm Lee to become major hurricane
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is keeping a close eye on Tropical Storm Lee, which is expected to strengthen into a major hurricane. The peak of hurricane season is four days away and he is seeing an uptick in tropical activity. In addition to Lee, Weber is watching Invest 96 working its way off the coast of Africa, and he is also monitoring the remnants of Hurricane Franklin, which may try to re-establish itself. Weber expects Tropical Storm Lee to reach hurricane strength soon and strengthen as it moves over warm water in the Atlantic. While Weber does not expect Lee to hit Florida because the computer models show it turning northward before reaching the Sunshine State, he says we could feel some of the effects depending on when it makes that turn.
