TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
530 PM EDT THU JUL 27 2006

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

A VIGOROUS TROPICAL WAVE IS PRODUCING A LARGE AREA OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN BAHAMAS...TURKS AND CAICOS
ISLANDS...HISPANIOLA...PUERTO RICO...AND ADJACENT WATERS OF THE
ATLANTIC AND CARIBBEAN SEA. ALTHOUGH UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE
UNFAVORABLE FOR TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
AND STRONG GUSTY WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN BRIEF SQUALLS AS THE
SYSTEM MOVES WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 20 TO 25 MPH.

A WESTWARD-MOVING TROPICAL WAVE...ACCOMPANIED BY A SURFACE LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM...IS SHOWING SIGNS OF ORGANIZATION ABOUT 550 MILES
SOUTHWEST OF THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS. HOWEVER...ANY FURTHER
DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED TO BE SLOW DUE TO ONLY MARGINALLY FAVORABLE
UPPER-LEVEL WINDS.

ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH FRIDAY.
