000 ABNT20 KNHC 121143 TWOAT TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL 800 AM EDT FRI SEP 12 2014 For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico: The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical Storm Edouard, located a little more of a thousand miles east of the northern Leeward Islands. The broad area of low pressure has moved westward and is now located over southern Florida just south of Lake Okeechobee. Shower activity is currently poorly organized, and strong upper-level winds as well as interaction with land will likely inhibit development of this system today. Once the low moves over the southeastern Gulf of Mexico, conditions could become a little more conducive for tropical cyclone formation over the weekend while the system moves westward at around 10 mph. Regardless of development, this low will continue to bring locally heavy rains to portions of southern Florida and the Florida Keys today and Saturday. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent. Shower activity associated with a tropical wave located south of the Cape Verde Islands is showing some signs of organization. This system, however, is forecast to move westward or west-northwestward at around 10 mph toward an area unfavorable for development. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent. && Public Advisories on Tropical Storm Edouard are issued under WMO header WTNT31 KNHC and under AWIPS header MIATCPAT1. Forecast/Advisories on Edouard are issued under WMO header WTNT21 KNHC and under AWIPS header MIATCMAT1. $$ Forecaster Avila
