According to the National Hurricane Center, a tropical cyclone is classified as a depression if its maximum sustained winds are 38 mph or less and a tropical storm if its winds range from 39 to 73 mph.

Through the weekend, the storm is expected to deliver strong winds and torrential rain to Jamaica, northern South America, Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao. It is anticipated to impact Cuba on Monday before surfacing over the Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday.

DeSantis issued a statement, "We advise all Floridians to make their preparations as this storm has the potential to intensify into a catastrophic hurricane."

In response to the threat, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency for 24 counties on Friday when it was still a tropical depression.
