TRACKING THE TROPICS
East of the Windward Islands and the Caribbean Sea (AL98):
A tropical wave located several hundred miles east of the Windward Islands continues to produce a broad area of showers and thunderstorms. This system is expected to move quickly westward at 20 to 25 mph, crossing the Windward Islands during the next day or so. By the middle to latter part of next week, environmental conditions could become more favorable for development, and a tropical depression could form while the system slows down over the central Caribbean Sea. Regardless of development, this system is expected to bring heavy rainfall and gusty winds to the Windward Islands Sunday into Monday morning.
Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.
North Atlantic: A non-tropical, complex area of low pressure is located several hundred miles northeast of Bermuda. Further development of this system is not expected due to cooling ocean waters while it moves northeastward over the North Atlantic.
Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. Formation chance through 7 days...low...near 0 percent.
