Tropical storm Earl is in the Atlantic moving north.
Tropical Storm Earl formed late Friday night about 12 hours after the first hurricane of the 2022 Atlantic season formed. The first hurricane of the Atlantic season, named Danielle, has since weakened to a tropical storm. Danielle is in the open Atlantic and poses no immediate threat to land. Neither system is expected to impact Louisiana.

2022 hurricane season
The shaded area on the graphic is where a storm could develop and is not a track. The National Hurricane Center releases a track when a tropical depression forms or is about to form. The categories, in order of increasing strength, are tropical depression, tropical storm and hurricane (categories 1 through 5). Systems are named when they develop into a tropical storm. The next available name is Fiona. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 through Nov. 30, but systems can form at any time.
Only the ships at sea need to worry.
