For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

1. Southwestern Caribbean Sea:
A broad area of low pressure is likely to develop over the 
southwestern Caribbean Sea during the next day or so.  Gradual 
development is possible thereafter, and a tropical depression could 
form over the weekend or early next week while the system drifts 
generally northward or northwestward over the central or western 
Caribbean Sea.  Regardless of development, locally heavy rains are 
possible over portions of the adjacent land areas of the western 
Caribbean.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...60 percent.

2. Northeastern Caribbean Sea and Greater Antilles:
A trough of low pressure near Puerto Rico is producing widespread 
cloudiness and showers over the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, the 
Virgin Islands, the northern Leeward Islands, and the adjacent 
waters of the Atlantic and the northeastern Caribbean.  Slow 
development of this system is possible during the next 2-3 days as 
it moves west-northwestward near the Greater Antilles.  After that 
time, this system is expected to be absorbed into the low pressure 
area over the Caribbean.  Regardless of development, locally heavy 
rains are possible during the next several days from the northern 
Leeward Islands westward across Puerto Rico and Hispaniola to 
eastern Cuba and the southeastern Bahamas.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.

3. North Atlantic:
A storm-force non-tropical low pressure area located about 500 
miles west of the western Azores is producing limited shower 
activity.  Some subtropical development is possible while the low 
moves generally eastward during the next few days.  Additional 
information on this system is available in High Seas Forecasts 
issued by the National Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.
