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

Widespread cloudiness and showers extending from the northwestern

unfavorable for development during the next couple of days, some

gradual development is possible later this week while the system

moves into the central or eastern Gulf of Mexico. Regardless of

development, locally heavy rainfall is possible across western Cuba

and Florida over the next several days. For more information on

the heavy rain threat, please see products issued by your local

weather office. The next Special Tropical Weather Outlook on this
