An elongated area of low pressure, previously located over northeast Florida, has emerged over the western Atlantic and is now located about 60 miles east of the coast of Georgia. Showers and thunderstorms associated with this system have increased in coverage and are gradually becoming better organized. The low is likely to become a tropical depression or storm during the next day or so before it merges with a cold front. Regardless of development, the low is expected to cause increasing winds and rough surf along the coasts of Georgia, the Carolinas, and Virginia through mid-week. A tropical storm watch may be required for a portion of the coast of North and South Carolina this afternoon. Heavy rain is also expected to continue over portions of the Florida peninsula during the next 24 hours. Please refer to products from your local National Weather Service forecast office for more information on this system. * Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent. A tropical wave over western Africa is forecast to emerge over the far eastern Atlantic Ocean tonight or early Monday. Environmental conditions appear to be conducive for slow development by the middle of next week while the wave moves westward about 15 to 20 mph. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent. $$ Forecaster Roberts
