As of August 25, 2025, Tropical Storm Fernand has formed in the Atlantic Ocean, becoming the sixth named storm of the 2025 hurricane season. The storm was located about 360 miles east-northeast of Bermuda, with maximum sustained winds near 50 mph and higher gusts.
Fernand is currently moving toward the north-northeast at 12 mph, and this motion is expected to continue for the next day or so, followed by a turn to the northeast. Forecasters say the storm is expected to begin weakening on Monday night, August 25, and is anticipated to become post-tropical by Wednesday, August 27.
Importantly, there are currently no hazards affecting land stemming from Tropical Storm Fernand, as it continues to track across the open waters of the subtropical central Atlantic, well east and northeast of Bermuda. The National Hurricane Center is also monitoring Tropical Storm Juliette in the Pacific, but that storm is also not expected to impact land areas.
