Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Lisa formed Tuesday in the eastern Atlantic Ocean, but posed no immediate threat to land.
As of 5 a.m. ET, Lisa was about 530 miles (850 km) west-northwest of the Cape Verde Islands, according to the National Hurricane Center. Lisa was headed north at 5 mph (7 kph) and carried maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 kph).
Lisa is expected to strengthen in the next few days.
Maybe it's the name (heh), but this one sounds serious. This sounds like the kind of tropical storm that will destroy your house and steal your lunch money. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the worst one of the season, perhaps even the decade. There's one thing for certain - the damage will be severe and wanton; Lisa takes no prisoners.
Her dastardly plan for world domination continues apace...
That is all.

The Lisa I knew was a holy terror once she got started... Just sayin...
I think we've ALL known a Lisa like that.
Hopefully not the same one...
I live in Newfoundland. That was a helluva storm. Some guy got washed into the ocean and we only found his body yesterday, last I heard the town of Catalina was still stranded 'cos of flooding. Shoal Harbour was declared a state of emergency and evacuated. Trees, power lines and telephone poles went down all over the place, some people were without power for days, and the military has to come in to help fix everything up.
