For the North Atlantic… Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
- Central Tropical Atlantic: An elongated area of low pressure located several hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles is producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Although environmental conditions are only marginally conducive, some gradual development of this system is expected over the next several days and a tropical depression is likely to form later this week or this weekend. The disturbance is forecast to move slowly toward the west and then west-northwest at 5 to 10 mph, toward the adjacent waters of the northern Leeward Islands. Additional information on this system can be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service. * Formation chance through 48 hours…medium…50 percent.
- Formation chance through 5 days…high…80 percent.
- Eastern Tropical Atlantic: A tropical wave accompanied by a broad area of low pressure is located off the west coast of Africa. Some gradual development is possible, and the system could become a short-lived tropical depression over the far eastern Atlantic during the next few days. By late this week, environmental conditions are forecast to become increasingly unfavorable for further development. Regardless, the system could bring locally heavy rainfall to portions of the Cabo Verde Islands on Wednesday. * Formation chance through 48 hours…low…20 percent.
- Formation chance through 5 days…medium…40 percent.
