A tropical wave is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the central Caribbean Sea. Development is expected to be slow during the next day or two as the disturbance moves west- northwestward at about 15 mph across the western Caribbean. By the end of the weekend or early next week, environmental conditions appear more conducive for development when the system moves near or over the Yucatan Peninsula and the Bay of Campeche. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent. $$ Forecaster Beven
