New Tropical System Forms Near Miami

A new tropical system, called Tropical Depression 3, has formed off the Miami coast. It’s winds are not strong enough to yet be called a Tropical Storm (they have to be at least 39 mph), so is called a depression. And it’s the third one of the season. It is expected to stay fairly weak and have little impact along the coast. The only threat would be a period of solid rain right along the coast, but at this point no flooding is expected.
