Humberto is moving away from the Bahamas and was about 210 miles (335 km) northwest of Great Abaco Island and 170 miles (270 km) east of Cape Canaveral, Florida, according to the National Hurricane Center. The storm is forecast to continue moving away from the Bahamas and remain well offshore of Florida's east coast through Wednesday, the center said. Fears of a second stormThere was concern about what Humberto would bring to the Bahamas, where hundreds are still missing after the Category 5 Hurricane Dorian hit the Abaco Islands and Grand Bahama. The islands did get some rain, Van Dam said, but did not get Humberto's full impact.

(CNN) - Humberto is now a tropical storm barreling its way through the Atlantic and threatening the same northwestern Bahamas islands ravaged by Hurricane Dorian nearly two weeks ago. A tropical storm warning was in effect for the northwestern Bahamas, excluding Andros Island, the center said. "Since there is increasing confidence that the storm will remain well offshore of the coast of Florida, the tropical storm watch for that area has been discontinued," the center said. Swells generated by the tropical storm are expected to increase and affect the coasts of central Florida to South Carolina through early next week.
