June 24 (UPI) -- Tropical Storm Andrea formed off the U.S. Atlantic Coast on Tuesday morning becoming the first named storm of the 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season, according to the National Hurricane Center.
In its 5 p.m. AST update, the NHC said Andrea's center was located around 1,110 miles west of the Azores as the storm carried maximum sustained winds of 40 mph.
Andrea is also currently moving northeast at 20 mph and is forecast to continue in that direction for around another day.
The storm is expected to weaken Tuesday night and then dissipate by Wednesday evening.
"This will be a short-lived tropical storm, as environmental conditions will become increasingly hostile during the next 12 to 24 hours," the NHC said in a discussion on the storm.
The hurricane center reported Tuesday that Andrea is not currently affecting any land mass, with the next update to come at 11 p.m.
