As of Monday afternoon, Subtropical Storm Nicole was centered more than 400 miles east of the northwestern Bahamas.
Nicole was packing maximum sustained winds of 45 mph as it moved toward the northwest. Winds of 40 mph or higher were extending outward up to 275 miles from Nicole's center.
A subtropical storm is sort of a hybrid storm, meaning it has characteristics of both a typical low-pressure system and a tropical cyclone. However, unlike the typical low, a subtropical storm gets a lot of its energy from warm ocean water and has maximum sustained winds of at least 39 mph.
Subtropical storms are named in the same way as tropical storms, and both can become hurricanes if they generate winds of at least 74 mph. Nicole is the 14th named storm of the 2022 Atlantic hurricane season.

Anyone can accidentally leave their child in a car, remember to check your back seat before leaving.The look before you lock campaign reminds parents and carers that anyone can accidentally leave their child in a car. Tiredness, stress, or a change in routine can all interfere with short-term memory, and there are strategies that can help create safer routines that lower the risk of this happening.
Is It Against the Law to Leave a Child in a Car?
The answer is yes.
The Texas Penal Code clearly states: “A person commits an offense if he intentionally or knowingly leaves a child in a motor vehicle for longer than five minutes, knowingly that the child is:
Younger than seven years of age and/or
Not attended by an individual in the vehicle who is 14 years of age or older."
The serious consequences one could face if convicted are a Class C misdemeanor (citation) up to a felony offense, depending on the circumstances and or injuries a child may incur while left alone in a vehicle.
What Are Some Safety Tips to Avoid Leaving a Child in a Hot Car?
Here are some safety tips to keep in mind that we hope will help do away with any and all of these potential situations:
DON’T FORGET TO CHECK THE BACKSEAT! Put something back there that you will need like your purse or briefcase, maybe one of your shoes, or better yet – your cell phone!
Also try placing something in the front seat to remind you that your child is in the car, such as one of the child’s shoes or a stuffed animal.
To avoid the situation of your kids getting in your car without you knowing, always lock your car and ensure children do not have access to the keys or remote entry devices. Children should be taught that cars are not a place for play.
Hopefully, by remembering to follow these important safety tips, together, we can prevent any of these unnecessary tragedies from happening.
Why Does the Temperature Inside the Car Increase so Quickly?The temperature inside a car increases rapidly due to the greenhouse effect. This natural phenomenon is caused by the sun's rays entering through the windows of the car and heating the surfaces inside the vehicle. When the windows of the car are closed there is no way for the heat to escape which causes the temperature inside the vehicle to rise at a rapid rate.
What Happens When a Child Is Left in a Hot Car?In a matter of MINUTES, they will experience heat exhaustion or heat stroke, leading to permanent disability or death.Heatstroke, also known as hyperthermia, can cause:ShockSeizuresIrregular heartbeatHeart attackDamage to the brain, liver, and kidneys
Hot Car Facts
The temperature in your car can rise 20 degrees within the first 10 minutes.
When the outside temperature is 85 degrees Fahrenheit after just 10 minutes the temperature inside a car can climb to 104, after 20 minutes to 114, and it keeps climbing.
Children overheat four times faster than adults.
Remember your pets too! According to the American Veterinary Medical Foundation, every year hundreds of pets die from heat exhaustion because they are left in parked vehicles.
