Tropical Storm Warnings Issued For Caribbean, Including Puerto Rico

"Tropical storm warnings have been issued for parts of the Caribbean, including Puerto Rico, as a disturbance expected to become Tropical Storm Isaias could eventually approach Florida this weekend.

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) dubbed this system "Potential Tropical Cyclone Nine" Tuesday, a procedure allowing the NHC to issue advisories, watches and warnings for a system that hasn't yet developed, but poses a threat of tropical storm-force or hurricane-force winds to land areas within 48 hours.

While this large system is slowly consolidating its thunderstorms, it has not yet developed a well-defined closed low-pressure center."

The Weather Channel had the story July 29, 2020.
