BREAKING RIGHT NOW AT NOON. TROPICAL STORM AARON HAS FORMED IN THE ATLANTIC. THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. I\u2019M TIFFANY KENNEY. AND I\u2019M AARON GUY. THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS PREDICTING THIS COULD BE A MAJOR HURRICANE. LET\u2019S BRING IN FIRST WARNING. METEOROLOGIST SANDRA SHAW. SHE HAS THE LATEST ADVISORY. SANDRA. ALL RIGHT, WELL, AARON DROPPED AT 11 A.M. AND BASICALLY, AS WE HAD BEEN PREDICTING ALL WEEKEND LONG AND ALL THIS MORNING, IT HAD A VERY GOOD CHANCE OF DEVELOPING. AND NOW IT HAS 45 MILE AN HOUR SUSTAINED WINDS AND IS REALLY RACING TO THE WEST NOW AT 20 MILES AN HOUR. SO IT\u2019S EAST OF THE CABO, WEST OF THE CABO VERDE ISLANDS, CLOSE TO AFRICA AND MAKING ITS WAY, KIND OF DIPPING SOUTH OVER ATLANTIC WATERS AND THEN MAGNIFYING AND INTENSIFYING INTO A HURRICANE BY PERHAPS WEDNESDAY. AFTER THAT, IT CONTINUES THAT WESTWARD JAUNT. AND THEN IT\u2019S LOCATED NORTHEAST OF PUERTO RICO AND INTO THE CARIBBEAN AS A MAJOR CATEGORY THREE HURRICANE WITH 115 MILE AN HOUR WINDS. FOR THE LATEST NHC ADVISORY. THE GOOD NEWS IS, MOST OF THE MODELS NOW WANT TO SHIFT IT MORE TO THE NORTH AFTER THAT, BUT IT IS WAY TOO EARLY TO CALL. AS YOU KNOW FROM FALLING THE TROPICS DOWN HERE, HERE\u2019S A LOOK AT ONE OF THE MODELS. THIS IS THE AMERICAN MODEL. I\u2019M GOING TO SHOW YOU BOTH THE AMERICAN AND THE EUROPEAN. AS YOU CAN SEE, IT MAKES GOOD HEADWAY. IT INTENSIFIES, IT BECOMES LARGER. THE EYE MORE PRONOUNCED. BUT THEN LOOK, IT GETS THAT LITTLE SHOVE THANKS TO HIGH PRESSURE ANCHORED OFF OUR EASTERN SHORE AND A FRONT TO OUR NORTH TO MOVE AWAY FROM THE US. THE EUROPEAN MODEL HERE ON SUNDAY HAS IT WELL TO THE EAST\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<a class=\"article-byline--profile\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wpbf.com\/news-team\/16c5c7bf-4e50-41b4-a79e-37626380a898\" aria-label=\"Brooke Silverang profile page\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"article-byline--details-position\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wpbf.com\/news-team\/16c5c7bf-4e50-41b4-a79e-37626380a898\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWPBF 25 First Warning Meteorologist<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tTropical Storm Erin formed Monday morning in the eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean.
