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

THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON RECENTLY
DOWNGRADED TROPICAL STORM OMAR...LOCATED ABOUT 705 MILES EAST OF
BERMUDA.

THE REMNANT CIRCULATION OF FORMER TROPICAL DEPRESSION SIXTEEN
REMAINS CENTERED INLAND OVER CENTRAL AMERICA. THIS SYSTEM IS NEARLY
STATIONARY AND WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS FROM
NORTHERN COSTA RICA TO SOUTHEASTERN MEXICO DURING THE NEXT COUPLE
OF DAYS. THESE RAINS COULD CAUSE FLASH FLOODS AND MUD SLIDES. 
DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM IS NOT ANTICIPATED IN THE CARIBBEAN SEA
WITHIN THE NEXT TWO DAYS.

A LARGE AND DISORGANIZED AREA OF CLOUDINESS AND SHOWERS IS
ASSOCIATED WITH A TROPICAL WAVE ABOUT 550 MILES SOUTHWEST OF THE
CAPE VERDE ISLANDS.  FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM IS NOT
LIKELY DURING THE NEXT TWO DAYS AS IT MOVES TOWARD THE WEST AT
ABOUT 10 TO 15 MPH.

A SMALL AREA OF DISTURBED WEATHER IS LOCATED OVER THE CENTRAL
CARIBBEAN SEA ABOUT 175 MILES EAST-SOUTHEAST OF JAMAICA. 
UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE CURRENTLY UNFAVORABLE FOR ADDITIONAL
DEVELOPMENT TO OCCUR.

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