As of early Sunday morning, Carlos was sited 2,000 miles east-southeast of Hilo and was moving towards the west-southwest at 7 miles every hour, the National Hurricane Center said.
The tropical storm had greatest sustained winds of 50 miles every hour with higher gusts. It is also a small tropical cyclone, with tropical storm force winds stretching 35 miles from its center. Forecasters said Carlos is not anticipated to strengthen into a hurricane as it meanders in the open ocean for the coming five days.

But as in the previous seven years, the season got an early start when Tropical Storm Ana formed in the Atlantic on May 22 . Forecasters say that short-lived storm is a likely sign of what s predicted to be another above-average season.

underground.com. joining me is the chief science officer from popular science magazine. thank you for being with us. thank you for having me. i think people want to know what the relationship is between the warming of the planet, the warming of the world s oceans and these storms. sure, and that s a question people have increasingly as we seem to have increasingly severe hurricane seasons, what is the kerks between this and climate change? for a lot of weather, it s difficult to make that direct connection to climate but with hurricanes there is a pretty clear connection. they re fueled by warm water. so warmer seawater means more powerful hurricanes. did climate change cause this hurricane? no. hurricanes happen periodically and that won t change. it was that way before humans existed. but they are getting worse. and another thing to keep in mind with climate change and this particular storm is that slow movement that we ve been talking about so much.
