Share
From Times Staff and Wire Reports

Hurricane Nana lost its punch, and forecasters at the National Hurricane Center in Miami expected it to slowly continue losing strength as it remained nearly stationary in the Caribbean. Nana, which is now designated as a tropical storm, had top winds of 70 m.p.h., but it still posed a threat to Bermuda. Nana, the eighth named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season, moved north-northeast at nearly 5 m.p.h. and was expected to turn toward the northeast today.
