TD7 to Tropical Storm Gonzalo
Tropical Depression 7 upgraded to named storm Tropical Storm Gonzalo at 11:00 hours (AST) by the US National Hurricane Center. A fairly small storm in physical size it is forecast to develop into a hurricane on Thursday, but drop back to a Tropical Storm before reaching the Windward Islands. As with most storms of this size they have a tendency to fluctuate in strength, therefore close monitoring is required.
