Tropical Depression Six has strengthened to become the fifth named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season: Tropical Storm Erin.

It is a 40-mph storm located about 430 miles west of Bermuda, according to the National Hurricane Center's latest advisory. It is moving west at 2 mph.

Forecasters are confident the storm will not impact the U.S., aside from an increased rip current threat along the East Coast because of higher waves generated by the storm.
