TAMPA, Fla. - The tropics are waking up as summer gives way to fall, with the National Hurricane Center watching two more tropical waves for possible development as Hurricane Gabrielle intensifies over the warm Atlantic waters.

Hurricane Gabrielle's track

As of 11 a.m. Monday, Gabrielle was located at 30.8N and 62.3W with maximum sustained winds of 120 mph.

The Category 3 hurricane is moving north at 10 mph.

FOX 13 meteorologists say Gabrielle will pass over 100 miles east of Bermuda. There is high confidence in its eventual turn northeastward towards the North Atlantic and far away from the United States.

Swells generated by Gabrielle will continue to affect Bermuda and parts of the U.S. east coast, creating life-threatening surf and rip-current conditions in some spots.
