Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
100 PM EST Mon Nov 12 2018
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. A tropical wave located about 200 miles east of the Leeward Islands
continues to produce a large area of disturbed weather over much
of the western tropical Atlantic Ocean. Although environmental
conditions are forecast to gradually become more conducive for a
tropical depression to form during the next few days, interaction
with land could inhibit tropical cyclone formation. The disturbance
is forecast to move westward to west-northwestward for the next few
days, passing near or north of the Leeward Islands, Puerto Rico,
Hispaniola, and the southeastern Bahamas. Interests in these areas
should closely monitor the progress of this system.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.
Additional information on this system can be found in High Seas
Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service, under AWIPS header
