TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK AUG 1 2017 0440 PM EDT

RTW:  Ralph's Tropical Weather

1. Monitoring disorganized showers a storm which are part of a tropical wave and low pressure, that are more than likely being enhanced by the monsoonal trough in this area.
NHC is saying that this system have 10% chance within 48 hrs and 20% within the next 48 hrs.

There are no signs of tropical cyclone formation at this time...RTW

2. See NHC Public Advisories and RTW Storm Track Page for forecast graphics and information on EMILY...RTW

3.  Monitoring an area of showers and thunderstorms south of a trough over the Gulf of Mexico which use to be part of the stationary front in the Atlantic.  Low pressure is along this trough and the showers and storms have become more numerous.  I will keep a eye on it just in case...RTW
