Special Tropical Weather Outlook

NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL

750 PM EDT Sun May 31 2020

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

Special Tropical Weather Outlook issued to discuss the potential for

tropical cyclone formation over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico.

The remnants of Eastern Pacific Tropical Storm Amanda are currently

located over northern Guatemala. This system is forecast to move

northwestward to northward within a broader area of disturbed

weather, and it could emerge over the southeastern Bay of Campeche

on Monday. If the remnants move back over water, environmental

conditions appear conducive to support some development, and a new

tropical depression could form while the system moves little through

the middle of this week. Regardless of tropical cyclone formation,

heavy rainfall is likely to continue over portions of southern

Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize, and western Honduras during

the next few days. For additional information on the rainfall

threat, see products from your national meteorological service. The

next update on this system will be in the first regularly scheduled

Tropical Weather Outlook of the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane season,

which will be issued by 2 AM EDT Monday morning.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent.

* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent.

Special Tropical Weather Outlook

NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL

200 AM EDT Sun May 31 2020

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

Special Tropical Weather Outlook issued to discuss the area of low

pressure over the central Atlantic and the potential for tropical

cyclone formation over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico.

An area of low pressure located about 350 miles east of Bermuda is

producing limited shower activity. The low is forecast to move

northeastward at 5 to 10 mph later today, and development is not

expected due to unfavorable environmental conditions.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.

* Formation chance through 5 days...low...near 0 percent.

Tropical Depression Two-E, located near the Pacific coasts of

Guatemala and El Salvador, is forecast to move inland and dissipate

over Guatemala or southeastern Mexico by tonight. However, the

remnants are expected to turn northwestward within a broader

developing area of disturbed weather, possibly emerging over the

Bay of Campeche on Monday. If the remnants do move back over

water, environmental conditions appear conducive to support some

redevelopment of the system while it moves little during much of

the upcoming week. Regardless of redevelopment, heavy rainfall is

likely over portions of southern Mexico during the next few days.

The next Special Tropical Weather Outlook will be issued later

this morning by 9 AM EDT.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.

* Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent.
