NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

Islands is producing a large area of cloudiness and showers, but
it currently has limited thunderstorm activity near the center of
circulation. However, a tropical depression is still likely to
form later today or on Monday before upper-level winds become less
conducive for development. The low is expected to move
northwestward or north-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph over the
central Atlantic Ocean during the next few days.

near the southeastern Bahamas. However, there are still no signs of
a surface circulation, and conditions do not appear conducive for
significant development of this disturbance while it moves west-
northwestward at 10 to 15 mph. Heavy rainfall is possible over
portions of the Bahamas today and on Monday.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...near 0 percent
