The National Weather Service says the enhanced rip current threat is expected to continue through Monday.

Meanwhile, satellite images indicate that Ana transitioned from a subtropical storm to a tropical storm early this morning, the National Hurricane Center said. The first named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season (which officially begins June 1) was located northeast of Bermuda this morning moving slowly northeast with sustained winds of 45 mph.

Slight weakening is expected to take place during the next 24 hours and Ana is expected to dissipate by Monday, the hurricane center said.
