A weak and disorganized storm, it originated from a tropical wave that moved into the Atlantic Ocean late on August 25. After struggling to develop, it became a tropical storm on August 30 and was named Fiona. It followed closely behind Hurricane Earl, and moved through the northern Leeward Islands. There, it produced brief showers and tropical storm force wind gusts. Subsequently, Fiona reached its peak intensity on September 1, before it dissipated on September 4 to the south of Bermuda. No deaths were reported from the storm. Fiona was the second storm of 2010 to affect Bermuda after Tropical Storm Colin, and the third after Hurricane Bill a year earlier.
