A tropical storm watch was issued for Bermuda early on September 7, and later that day a tropical storm warning and a hurricane watch superseded it.
However, the storm did not reach the island, so the warnings were canceled as the storm moved away September 8.
Four cruise ships left the island ahead of schedule, and flights were canceled in anticipation of Nate.

The outer bands of Nate brushed Bermuda with sustained winds of 35 mph (55 km/h) and widespread showers.
Gusts were higher, peaking at roughly 50 mph (80 km/h).
Less than 1 inch (25 mm) of rain was recorded at Bermuda International Airport.
Damage in Bermuda was minimal.
Two ships reported tropical storm-force winds in association with the storm: the Maersk New Orleans, to the north of the storm's center, and a ship with the call sign WCZ858 to the east-southeast.
Rip currents from Nate and the more distant Maria killed one and injured another in New Jersey; several others were caught in rip currents, though they were able to escape.
In the Carolinas, Nate also contributed to heightened seas, though this time in combination with Hurricane Ophelia and persistent unrelated northeasterly winds.
A buoy just offshore Cape Fear recorded waves up to 12 ft (3.7 m).

Tropical energy from the remnants of Nate and Maria merged to form a broad storm system that would track toward parts of Europe.
The mid-latitude cyclone produced a day of heavy rains across the Scottish Highlands that included a 24-hour precipitation total of 5.17 in (131 mm) on the Isle of Skye.
As it continued north, the storm also dropped torrential rainfall over Western Norway.
The region suffered extensive flooding and mudslides, including one that killed one person and injured nine more.
Although the remnants of Nate and Maria avoided England, they broke a streak of above-average temperatures in the region, filtering down much cooler Arctic air.
In places, this led to the first frost of the winter season.
Temperatures down to −1.7 °C (28.9 °F) were recorded following the influx of colder air, with readings below freezing as far south as Hertfordshire.

Four Canadian Navy ships headed to the Gulf Coast of the United States, carrying relief supplies to help in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, were slowed down trying to avoid Hurricanes Nate and Ophelia.
The convoy included a destroyer, two frigates, and an icebreaker, and developed a plan to travel between the two hurricanes to minimize damage to their cargo.
Anticipating rough seas and gusty winds even with the altered course, crews secured onboard supplies which included generators, chainsaws, diapers, and cots.
The genesis of Tropical Storm Nate continued the unprecedented levels of tropical activity during the 2005 hurricane season; when it developed on September 5, it was the earliest in any season that the fourteenth named tropical cyclone formed, surpassing the previous record held by an unnamed storm during the 1936 season.
