The moist air flowing westward from the NorthAtlantic Ocean met the warm waters of the western Caribbean Sea, and what's described as a tropical wave became a tropical storm over a period of six hours. Named Sandy by the National HurricaneCenter located in Miami, Florida, she gathered her strength and was upgraded to hurricane status within 48 hours.
