一 | MIAMI -- Tropical Storm Tammy formed Wednesday afternoon in the Atlantic Ocean, putting a group of islands on alert for its expected approach.The Miami-based National Hurricane Center said Tammy was centered at 5 p.m. EDT about 625 miles (1,005 kilometers) east of the Windward Islands. It was moving briskly to the west at 23 mph (37 kph) and expected to gradually strengthen in coming days.Tropical storm watches have been issued for Barbados, Dominica, and Martinique and Guadeloupe. Forecasters said tropical storm conditions were possible in the region starting within 48 hours and that further watches and warnings will likely be required Wednesday night or Thursday. Tammy is initially expected to spread heavy rains over the northern Windward and Leeward Islands through Friday and then across the U.S. and British Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico over the weekend, according to the hurricane center.The center's opening advisory on Tammy said total rainfall could measure between 3 and 6 inches (7-14 centimeters) with maximum amounts of 10 inches (25 centimeters) in some spots in the northern Windward Islands and Leeward Islands. Lesser rainfall amounts are expected in the British and U.S. Virgin Islands into eastern Puerto Rico, the hurricane center added.The prospect of heavy rains as Tammy nears those islands raises a threat of scattered flash flooding, urban flooding and isolated mudslides in higher terrain, according to meteorologists.。 人民日报北京4月24日电 （记者刘温馨）24日，针对南方等地严重暴雨洪涝灾害，国家防灾减灾救灾委员会启动国家四级救灾应急响应，在前期已调拨1.5万件中央救灾物资基础上，财政部、应急管理部紧急预拨1.1亿元中央自然灾害救灾资金，支持广东、江西、广西防汛救灾工作。其中，预拨广东省5000万元、江西省4000万元、广西壮族自治区2000万元，由地方统筹用于应急抢险救援和受灾群众救助，重点做好搜救转移安置受灾人员、排危除险等应急处置、开展次生灾害隐患排查和倒损民房修复等。《人民日报》（ 2024年04月25日 第 14 版）。
