Tropical Weather Outlook

NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL

800 PM EDT Mon Oct 23 2017

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

An elongated area of low pressure has formed near the northeastern

coast of Nicaragua. This broad disturbance is producing widespread

cloudiness and scattered thunderstorms over much of the northwestern

and southwestern Caribbean Sea, and the adjacent coastal areas of

northeastern Nicaragua and eastern Honduras. Further development,

if any, should be slow to occur for the next couple of days due to

interaction with the high terrain of Central America. Thereafter,

environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for some

development to occur over the northwestern Caribbean Sea while the

system moves slowly northward.

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

* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...50 percent.
