Data from an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter Aircraft indicate that Tropical Storm Rafael is strengthening this evening. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 65 mph and the storm is located about 760 miles south of Bermuda. Some of Rafael's rain bands are still affecting portions of the northern Leeward Islands and rainfall totals of 4 to 8 inches with isolated maximum amounts of 12...
inches are possible in the these areas. The forecast track brings Rafael near Bermuda on late Tuesday and a tropical storm watch is in effect for that island.

Meanwhile, in the eastern Pacific Ocean Tropical Storm Paul is located about 625 miles south of the southern tip of Baja California. Paul is forecast to strengthen as it moves northward and interests in Baja California should monitor the progress of this storm.

The latest information on both of these systems can be found at the NOAA NHC website at hurricanes.gov
