This is now Joyce as of the 11am advisory. The only area that looks to be of concern is Bermuda right now.

Hopefully Joyce shifts a little West of Bermuda so my Radar/Satellite could pick it up.

I'll find the official statement from the NHC, but were now on the same pace as the 1995/2005 Hurricane Seasons as far as named storms since the formation of "Joyce".

Joyce is encountering a lot of shear and dry air, which is why it weakened.  It's not going to pose any threat to the United States.  It may affect Bermuda in a few days, but it'll only be a weak tropical storm at most.

Update as of 11 AM EDT Friday:  Joyce has lost its center of circulation, and all advisories have been discontinued unless it regenerates.
