All interests in Bermuda should be monitoring this storm, as it is expected to pass close to the island in the next three days.With winds of 65 mph, the circulation of Leslie looks like it is experiencing some shear with most of the activity on the right side. That is the side forecast to hit Bermuday by the end of the week.
