MIAMI - Tropical Storm Kyle is rumbling over the open Atlantic south of Bermuda and could become a hurricane far out to sea as it heads north.
 
The National Hurricane Center says Kyle gained strength early Friday and now has top sustained winds near 60 mph.

Forecasters say the storm could become a hurricane by Saturday.

A tropical storm warning has been issued for Bermuda.

Kyle is centered about 475 miles south-southwest of Bermuda and moving north near 13 mph.

Kyle is the 11th named storm this season in the Atlantic.




(This version CORRECTS with NWS saying storm warning instead of watch for Bermuda.)
