Tropical Storm Andrea Forecast To Dissipate Overnight

Andrea, the Atlantic’s first tropical storm of 2025, will become post-tropical and dissipate overnight.

As of 5 p.m. AST, Tropical Storm Andrea was located near 37.9N and 47.4W, or about 1110 miles west of the Azores. Andrea is packing top sustained winds of 40 mph and is chugging northeast at 20 mph. Andrea has a minimum central pressure of 1015 mb, or 29.98 inches of mercury.

Andrea is poorly organized in the North Atlantic, absent of deep thunderstorms surrounding the center of the tropical storm. Cool water, dry air, and an unfavorable environment will be Andrea’s ultimate demise overnight.

Andrea will only move over open North Atlantic, posing no threat to land and only marginal impacts to shipping lanes.

WeatherBug partnered with meteorologists from AEM have predicted an above-average 2025 Atlantic hurricane season.

With the tropical season heating up, it’s time to prepare for the season. Start organizing portable phone chargers, a radio, batteries, non-perishable food, water and blankets into an evacuation kit now. While fair weather is in your area, take the opportunity to scout out multiple evacuation routes from your area in case your preferred route is traffic-jammed or blocked.
