Tropical Weather Outlook

NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL

200 AM EDT Tue Oct 26 2021

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

A deepening, non-tropical low pressure system with gale-force winds

is located about 250 miles east-northeast of Cape Hatteras, North

Carolina. This gale area is forecast to move north-northeastward

today, and could acquire some limited subtropical characteristics

before it merges with a frontal system by this afternoon. The

extratropical low is then expected to meander off the mid-Atlantic

and northeast U.S. coasts tonight and Wednesday, bringing rain and

wind impacts to portions of those areas. After that time, the low

is expected to move eastward away from the U.S. coast, and could

again acquire some subtropical characteristics while it moves

eastward or southeastward over the warmer waters of the central

Atlantic. For more information on this system, including storm

warnings, see products issued by your local National Weather Service

office and High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather

Service.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.

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