TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
800 PM EDT TUE AUG 26 2008

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON HURRICANE
GUSTAV...LOCATED JUST INLAND ABOUT 60 MILES WEST OF PORT-AU-PRINCE
HAITI...AND THE HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL PREDICTION CENTER IS ISSUING
PUBLIC ADVISORIES ON THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL DEPRESSION
FAY...LOCATED NEAR THE ALABAMA/TENNESSEE BORDER.

A LOW PRESSURE AREA CENTERED SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES EAST-NORTHEAST OF
THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS IS PRODUCING DISORGANIZED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS.  WHILE UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE CURRENTLY UNFAVORABLE
FOR TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION...THEY ARE FORECAST TO GRADUALLY
BECOME MORE CONDUCIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM DURING THE
NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS IT MOVES SLOWLY NORTHWESTWARD.

A TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED OVER THE FAR EASTERN ATLANTIC...ABOUT 200
MILES SOUTHWEST OF THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS...IS PRODUCING LIMITED
AND DISORGANIZED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY.  ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITIONS APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR SLOW DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM
DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS IT MOVES GENERALLY WESTWARD AT 10
TO 15 MPH.

CLOUDINESS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS LOCATED SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES
SOUTH OF BERMUDA ARE PRIMARILY ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM.  TROPICAL CYCLONE DEVELOPMENT IN THIS AREA IS NOT
ANTICIPATED.

ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED DURING THE
NEXT 48 HOURS.
