Tropical Storm Earl, the fifth named storm of the Atlantic season, developed “ahead of schedule” off the coast of Africa to join Hurricane Danielle on a trek to the west, the National Hurricane Center said.
Earl grew out of a tropical depression about 520 miles (837 kilometers) west of the Cape Verde Islands and has maximum sustained winds of 40 miles (63 kilometers) per hour, according to a hurricane center advisory at about 4:30 p.m. Miami time.
