TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) — The National Hurricane Center says Tropical Storm Epsilon is now a hurricane.

Wind speeds are equal to or exceeding 39 mph.

It is too early to tell what Epsilon’s track and intensity will be once near the island. Still, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said there is a risk of direct impact, and Bermuda residents should closely monitor the storm.
