Tropical Weather Outlook

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

Special Tropical Weather Outlook issued to discuss the broad trough 
of low pressure extending across central Florida and the adjacent 
Atlantic waters.

1. Showers and thunderstorms located over extreme northeastern  
Florida, adjacent Atlantic waters, and the northwestern Bahamas are 
associated with an elongated surface trough interacting with an 
upper-level disturbance.  Although a weak surface low has formed 
within the trough near Orlando, Florida, little if any further 
development of this system is expected due to land interaction, 
strong upper-level winds, and an abundance of dry air in the 
mid-levels of the atmosphere. The broad disturbance is forecast to 
move northward today and Wednesday, remaining inland or near the 
coasts of northeastern Florida and Georgia.

Regardless of development, heavy rainfall could cause flash 
flooding over portions of coastal sections of northeastern Florida 
and Georgia today, and over portions of the Carolinas on Tuesday 
and Wednesday.  Gusty winds could also produce rough marine 
conditions and life-threatening surf and rip currents along the 
coasts of northeastern Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas through 
Wednesday.

For additional information, see products from your local National 
Weather Service office.  The next Special Tropical Weather Outlook 
on this system will be issued by 9 PM EDT today, or earlier if 
necessary.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.
