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

THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON HURRICANE
GUSTAV...LOCATED INLAND OVER SOUTHERN LOUISIANA...ON HURRICANE
HANNA...LOCATED NEAR MAYAGUANA ISLAND IN THE SOUTHEASTERN
BAHAMAS...AND ON RECENTLY-UPGRADED TROPICAL STORM IKE...LOCATED
OVER THE CENTRAL TROPICAL ATLANTIC ABOUT HALFWAY BETWEEN AFRICA AND
THE LESSER ANTILLES. 

A TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED OVER THE FAR EASTERN ATLANTIC A COUPLE
HUNDRED MILES SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS CONTINUES
TO SHOW SIGNS OF ORGANIZATION.  THIS SYSTEM HAS NOT YET ACQUIRED A
WELL-DEFINED SURFACE CIRCULATION CENTER.  HOWEVER...ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR DEVELOPMENT AND THIS SYSTEM COULD
BECOME A TROPICAL DEPRESSION AT ANY TIME OVER THE NEXT DAY OR SO AS
IT MOVES WESTWARD AT 15 TO 20 MPH.

AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE LOCATED ABOUT 250 MILES EAST OF THE
NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS IS PRODUCING DISORGANIZED SHOWER ACTIVITY. 
ALTHOUGH SURFACE PRESSURES ARE LOW...UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE NOT
FAVORABLE FOR SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM.  

AN AREA OF DISTURBED WEATHER LOCATED ABOUT 700 MILES EAST OF BERMUDA
IS ASSOCIATED WITH A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE.  DEVELOPMENT OF THIS
SYSTEM...IF ANY...WILL BE SLOW TO OCCUR AS IT MOVES GENERALLY
NORTHWARD. 

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

PUBLIC ADVISORIES ON IKE ARE ISSUED UNDER WMO HEADER WTNT34 AND
UNDER AWIPS HEADER MIATCPAT4. FORECAST/ADVISORIES ON IKE ARE ISSUED
