MIAMI (AP) - Tropical Storm Gordon formed Monday in the open Atlantic
and was expected to head in the general direction of Bermuda, where
Hurricane Florence had already brought strong winds and high waves,
forecasters said.

At 5 p.m. EDT, Gordon had top sustained winds near 45 mph, above the 39
mph needed to be a named storm.

The seventh named storm of the 2006 Atlantic hurricane season was
centered about 425 miles northeast of the Leeward Islands and moving
northwest near 9 mph, forecasters said.
