Tropical Storm Melissa has formed in the Caribbean, making it the 13th named storm in the Atlantic this year, the Miami-based National Hurricane Center announced Tuesday morning. The NEXT Weather team at CBS Miami said no direct impacts are expected to South Florida at this time,

Though the risk to Florida is low, parts of the Caribbean are in peril. Tropical Storm Melissa is expected to power up to a major hurricane. Though its chances of affecting Florida are low, it can't be ruled out.

Melissa is now a hurricane, meaning millions in Jamaica are in harm’s way and could see flooded streets, power outages, and more.

Windy weather moving in today and will continue to impact South Florida this weekend. Winds: 15-25 mph. Isolated quick shower possible this weekend.

Tropical Storm Melissa could reach Category 5 as it rapidly intensifies, with forecasters warning of a potential 'humanitarian disaster' while impacts will be felt as far as Florida next week

An intensifying Melissa is expected to bring destructive flooding to Jamaica, southern Haiti and the Dominican Republic before tracking toward Cuba next week.
