The National Hurricane Center in Miami reports two weather disturbances in the northern Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico that have a low chance ot developing into tropical cyclones during the next 48 hours.
The first is a westward-moving tropical wave that is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the southeastern and south-central Caribbean Sea. Little development of this system is expected until it reaches the southwestern Caribbean Sea in a couple of days. The chance that this system will develop into a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours is put at 10 percent.
Also, there is a small area of disturbed weather over the eastern Atlantic about 700 miles southwest of the Cape Verde Islands that continues to lose organization as it interacts with a larger tropical wave a few hundred miles south-southeast of the Cape Verde Islands. Development of either system should be slow to occur. The chance of tropical cyclone formation in the area in the next 48 hours is put at 20 percent.
Elsewhere, tropical cyclone formation is not expected during the next 48 hours.
