TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
800 AM EDT FRI AUG 29 2008

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

THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON TROPICAL
STORM GUSTAV...LOCATED ABOUT 100 MILES WEST-NORTHWEST OF KINGSTON
JAMAICA...AND ON TROPICAL STORM HANNA...LOCATED ABOUT 245 MILES
NORTH-NORTHEAST OF THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS.

A TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED MIDWAY BETWEEN THE WEST COAST OF AFRICA 
AND THE LESSER ANTILLES IS PRODUCING DISORGANIZED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS.  UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE ONLY MARGINALLY FAVORABLE...
AND ANY DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM SHOULD BE SLOW TO OCCUR AS IT
MOVES WESTWARD AT 10 TO 15 MPH.

A STRONG TROPICAL WAVE JUST OFFSHORE OF THE WEST COAST OF AFRICA
CONTINUES TO SHOW SIGNS OF ORGANIZATION.  ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
APPEAR CONDUCIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT AND THIS SYSTEM COULD BECOME A
TROPICAL DEPRESSION DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS IT MOVES
WESTWARD AT 10 TO 15 MPH.  THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BRING SHOWERS
AND SQUALLS TO THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS DURING THE NEXT DAY OR TWO.

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