Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 PM EDT Wed Jul 22 2020

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on recently 
upgraded Tropical Storm Gonzalo, located over the central tropical 
Atlantic.

Recent satellite wind data indicate that a broad low pressure area 
has formed in association with the tropical wave over the central 
Gulf of Mexico.  However, the accompanying shower and thunderstorm 
activity is currently poorly organized.  Conditions appear conducive 
for additional development, and a tropical depression is likely to 
form during the next day or two as the system moves west- 
northwestward at about 10 mph.  Interests in the western Gulf of 
Mexico should monitor the progress of this system, as watches or 
warnings could be required for portions of the coasts of Texas and 
Louisiana later today or tonight.  An Air Force Reserve Hurricane 
Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate the system this 
afternoon.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.
