Tropical Weather Outlook

NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL

200 AM EDT Fri Sep 28 2018

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

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical

Storm Kirk, moving into the eastern Caribbean Sea.

Post-Tropical Cyclone Leslie, is located over the central Atlantic

Ocean several hundred miles west of the Azores. Satellite derived

winds indicate that the powerful non-tropical low is producing

storm-force winds that extend several hundred miles from the surface

circulation center. Although, associated shower activity remains

rather limited, Leslie, is still expected to again become a

subtropical storm, or possibly a tropical storm, Friday or Saturday

while it moves west-southwestward at about 10 mph over the

north-central Atlantic. For more information on this system, see

High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent.

* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.
