200 AM EDT Sun Aug 11 2024

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

1. Near the Lesser and Greater Antilles (AL98):
A broad area of showers and thunderstorms continue to show signs of 
organization in association with a tropical wave located roughly 
midway between the Cabo Verde Islands and the Lesser Antilles. 
Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development of 
this system during the next few days while it moves westward to 
west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph across the central tropical 
Atlantic. A tropical depression is likely to form by the early part 
of this week while the system approaches and then moves near or over 
the Lesser Antilles. Interests on these islands should continue to 
monitor the progress of this system and watches could be required 
for portions of the area as soon as later today. The system is 
forecast to then move generally west-northwestward and could 
approach portions of the Greater Antilles by the middle to latter 
part of this week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.
