SPECIAL TROPICAL DISTURBANCE STATEMENT
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
645 AM EST MON DEC 10 2007

THE BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE CENTERED ABOUT 250 MILES EAST OF
PUERTO RICO HAS CHANGED LITTLE IN ORGANIZATION EARLY THIS MORNING. 
WHILE A CLOSED SURFACE CIRCULATION APPEARS TO BE FORMING...
SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES THE SHOWER ACTIVITY IS REMOVED WELL TO
THE NORTH OF THE LOW.  ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ARE ONLY MARGINALLY
FAVORABLE FOR DEVELOPMENT...BUT A TROPICAL OR SUBTROPICAL CYCLONE
COULD STILL FORM DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS.  REGARDLESS OF FURTHER
DEVELOPMENT...THIS SYSTEM COULD PRODUCE HEAVY SQUALLS AND GUSTY
WINDS ACROSS THE VIRGIN ISLANDS...PUERTO RICO...AND HISPANIOLA
TODAY AND TONIGHT AS IT MOVES WESTWARD AT ABOUT 20 MPH.  INTERESTS
IN THESE AREAS SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS
SYSTEM.

FURTHER SPECIAL TROPICAL DISTURBANCE STATEMENTS WILL BE ISSUED AS
NECESSARY.  FOR INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO YOUR AREA...CONSULT
STATEMENTS ISSUED BY YOUR LOCAL WEATHER OFFICE.
