A tropical depression that developed Tuesday morning has organized enough in the hours since to become Tropical Storm Lee. And it's likely not to remain a tropical storm for long — National Hurricane Center forecasters expect it to rapidly intensify by the weekend.

Tropical Storm Lee is a 45-mph system located about 1,315 miles east of the Lesser Antilles, according to the hurricane center's latest advisory. It's moving west-northwest at 16 mph.
