EAST OF THE WINDWARD ISLANDS AND CARIBBEAN SEA:
A tropical wave located over the central tropical Atlantic around 1000 miles east of the Windward Islands continues to produce a large area of showers and thunderstorms. Gradual development of this system is possible over the next several days while it moves generally westward at 15 to 20 mph. Regardless of development, this system is expected to bring heavy rainfall and gusty winds to the Windward Islands late this weekend and then move across the Caribbean Sea much of next week.
WHAT WE KNOW:
- Development chances over the next 2 days: Low, 0%.
- Development over the next 3-7 days: Low, 30%.
IMPACTS TO LAND:
- Heavy rain and gusty winds possible over the Windward Islands late this weekend.
NORTH ATLANTIC:
A non-tropical area of low pressure is located well off the coast of the Northeast United States. There is a slight chance that the system could develop some subtropical characteristics during the weekend before it turns northeastward over cooler waters by early next week.
WHAT WE KNOW:
- Development chances over the next 2 days: Low, 10%.
- Development chances over the next 3-7 days: Low, 10%.
