Tropical Storm Dolly Fades But Brings Rain | Jacksonville News

Tropical Storm Dolly just formed in the central Atlantic as the fourth named storm of the season, but don’t expect it to stick around—forecasters say it’ll weaken and likely vanish by Monday. Still, it could bring much-needed rain and strong winds to drought-stricken Leeward Islands. Its short life is due to hostile conditions like dry air and high winds, common during El Niño. After passing the islands, a weak chance exists for regeneration in the southwest Atlantic, though models don’t support that. Florida? Less than 1% chance. The name Dolly, revived since 1996, will be followed by Edouard on this year’s list. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
