Tropical Weather Outlook

200 PM EDT Wed Jul 8 2020

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

A broad area of low pressure located near the coast of northeastern 
South Carolina continues to produce a large area of disorganized 
showers and thunderstorms over the adjacent Atlantic waters and 
portions of eastern North Carolina.  The low is expected to move 
northeastward near or just offshore of the North Carolina Outer 
Banks on Thursday, and then turn north-northeastward and move along 
the mid-Atlantic coast Friday.  Environmental conditions are 
expected to be conducive for development, and a tropical or 

subtropical cyclone is likely to form within the next day or so. 
Regardless of development, the system is expected to produce locally 
heavy rainfall that could cause some flash flooding across portions 
of eastern North Carolina, the coastal mid-Atlantic, and southern 
New England during the next few days. Gusty winds are also possible 
along the North Carolina Outer Banks through Thursday and along the 
mid-Atlantic and southern New England coasts Friday and Saturday.  
Interests in these areas should monitor the progress of this system 
and refer to products from your local National Weather Service 
office. 
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent.
