A surface trough developed into a tropical depression about south-southeast of Bermuda on September 19. The depression moved east-northeastward and intensified into a tropical storm early the next day. Later on September 20, the cyclone curved northeastward and accelerated. By September 22, however, the storm decelerated and peaked with maximum sustained winds of 60 mph (95 km/h). The system transitioned into an extratropical cyclone several hours later about southeast of Cape Race, Newfoundland. The extratropical remnant low was absorbed by a frontal boundary on September 23.
