Start paying attention coastal folks




For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Depression Five, located a few hundred miles northeast of Bermuda.

1. A small low pressure system is located near the coast of the
Florida Panhandle between Panama City and Apalachicola. The
associated thunderstorm activity is currently disorganized, and
significant development appears unlikely before the low moves inland
during the next several hours. This system is expected to evolve
into a larger low pressure system and move northeastward, possibly
emerging offshore of the Carolinas later this week where
environmental conditions are expected to be
more conducive for development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.

2. A strong tropical wave, centered about 650 miles east of the
Windward Islands, is producing disorganized showers and
thunderstorms. Some slight development of this system is possible
today before environmental conditions become hostile for
development on Tuesday. The wave is forecast to move through the
Lesser Antilles on Tuesday and could produce locally heavy rainfall
as well as gusty winds on some of those islands.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.
