BERYL'S REMNANTS (STORM INVEST 95L)
000 ABNT20 KNHC 092326 TWOAT Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 800 PM EDT Mon Jul 9 2018 For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico: The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical Storm Chris, located a couple of hundred miles south-southeast of the North Carolina Outer Banks. The remnants of Beryl are producing strong gusty winds and areas of heavy rain over the north-central Caribbean Sea, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. This system is expected to move west- northwestward across Hispaniola overnight and Tuesday with little development expected during that time due to land interaction and unfavorable upper-level winds. A turn to the northwest and then north is expected to begin by Tuesday night taking the system across the Bahamas and the adjacent Atlantic waters. Environmental conditions could become a little more conducive for regeneration of a tropical cyclone Wednesday night and Thursday when the system is forecast to be near or north of the Bahamas. Regardless of development, locally heavy rains and gusty winds are likely over portions of Hispaniola and the Bahamas as the remnants of Beryl move through those areas. Additional information on this system can be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...50 percent. && High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service can be found under AWIPS header NFDHSFAT1, WMO header FZNT01 KWBC, and on the Web at http://ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFAT1.shtml. $$ Forecaster Cangialosi https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/
