TL;DR

Tropical Storm Dolly has formed on a slow path toward the Caribbean and is not expected to strengthen into a hurricane, though its rainfall could affect the Virgin Islands, Leeward Islands and Puerto Rico. The name Dolly is a coincidence with the late Dolly Parton, and the article notes that NOAA forecasts 8–14 tropical storms this season, with 3–6 potentially becoming major hurricanes.
