000 ABNT20 KNHC 262347 TWOAT Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 800 PM EDT Sat Aug 26 2017 For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico: The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical Storm Harvey, located inland over central Texas. An elongated area of low pressure stretching across north-central Florida continues to produce a large area of disorganized cloudiness and thunderstorms extending from the southwest coast of Florida northeastward into the western Atlantic. Although upper-level winds are not particularly conducive, this system has the potential to become a tropical or subtropical depression early next week after it moves off the northeast coast of Florida on Sunday. The low is forecast to move close to the southeastern coast of the United States and merge with a cold front by mid-week. Regardless of tropical cyclone development, the low is expected to cause increasing winds and rough surf along the coasts of Georgia and the Carolinas through early next week. Heavy rain is also expected to continue over portions of the Florida peninsula during the next day or two. Please refer to products from your local National Weather Service forecast office for more information on this system. * Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...50 percent. A tropical wave over western Africa is forecast to emerge over the far eastern Atlantic Ocean on Sunday. Environmental conditions may be conducive for slow development by the middle of next week while the wave moves westward about 20 mph. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent. $$ Forecaster Landsea
