The latest forecast from the Bermuda Weather Service (BWS) shows that Leslie remains a Tropical Storm. However, the latest information from the Bermuda Weather Service (BWS), in consultation with the National Hurricane Centre in Miami, is that Leslie is expected to intensify into a Category 1 Hurricane as it passes Bermuda within the next 24 hours.
Sept 7 – Leslie is weakening, after days of stalling and slow movement in the Atlantic ocean. Nevertheless, the storm is expected to re-attain hurricane status as it passes Bermuda, and the island is currently under a Tropical Storm Watch.
=====
Leslie intensified into a hurricane Sept 5 while edging its way northward in the open Atlantic, on a direct path for Bermuda. Leslie is expected to become a Category 2 storm.

Sept 5
Leslie intensified into a hurricane today whilst edging its way northward in the open Atlantic, aiming for Bermuda at present. Leslie is expected to become a Category 2 storm, with a small chance of the storm becoming the first major hurricane of the Atlantic season. 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.
Sept 4
Leslie is starting its major slowdown over the Atlantic and the convection of Leslie appears to be heading towards Bermuda. Why is this circulation moving so slowly? Will the atmosphere keep Leslie at bay?
Tropical Storm Leslie has been churning the open Atlantic waters on its journey northeastward. Leslie is expected to continue to stay away from North America, though the Bermuda Weather Service refers Leslie as a potential threat to the island .
Leslie has attained 70mph winds and a pressure of 994mb earlier in its lifetime.

Osbourne the dusky shark has lived in the North Rock tank at the Bermuda Aquarium for 6 years. After having outgrown the tank and regularly sparring with a giant grouper named Vader, it was decided that for his, aquarium staff and the other tank inhabitants’ own safety he should be returned to the sea. But can a shark be returned back to the wild and survive after living for 6 years in captivity? Dusky sharks are considered “vulnerable” in the Atlantic and “near-threatened” around the world because of commercial and recreational fishing. What are Osbourne’s chances of making it in the wild? And does this heighten public fears about sharks in local Bermuda waters?
Where did Osbourne go? Osbourne the dusky shark was released back into the sea from the Bermuda Aquarium Museum and Zoo in March 2012. He was fitted with a PSAT tag just before his release. Dr. Neil Burnie explains where he has been.
