TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK 800 AM EDT MON JUL 20 2009
There is a system east of the islands, that while not forecast to become a named storm at this time, is still quite large and will make for some very wet and very windy weather over the next several days:
FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...
1. CLOUDINESS AND SHOWERS CONTINUE IN ASSOCIATION WITH A TROPICAL WAVE
LOCATED A COUPLE HUNDRED MILES EAST OF THE WINDWARD ISLANDS.
UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN UNFAVORABLE FOR
DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. REGARDLESS
OF DEVELOPMENT...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND GUSTY WINDS WILL AFFECT
THE WINDWARD ISLANDS DURING THE NEXT DAY OR SO AS THE WAVE MOVES
WESTWARD AT 15 TO 20 MPH. THERE IS A LOW CHANCE...LESS THAN 30
PERCENT...OF THIS SYSTEM BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE
NEXT 48 HOURS.
ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED DURING THE
NEXT 48 HOURS.
