TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
800 PM EDT THU OCT 9 2008

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

A BROAD TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE EXTENDING FROM THE WINDWARD ISLANDS
NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE ATLANTIC CONTINUES TO PRODUCE DISORGANIZED
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY.  ALTHOUGH UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE
EXPECTED TO REMAIN UNFAVORABLE FOR TROPICAL CYCLONE DEVELOPMENT...
HEAVY RAIN COULD SPREAD ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE LESSER ANTILLES OVER
THE NEXT DAY OR SO AS THE SYSTEM MOVES SLOWLY WESTWARD.

A LARGE AREA OF DISTURBED WEATHER HAS FORMED ABOUT 700 MILES
SOUTHWEST OF THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS.  ADDITIONAL SLOW DEVELOPMENT
OF THE SYSTEM IS POSSIBLE DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS IT
MOVES WEST-NORTHWESTWARD.

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