Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 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 Tropical 
Storm Gonzalo, located over the central tropical Atlantic.

Data from the Air Force Hurricane Hunters and surface observations 
indicate that an area of low pressure over the central Gulf of 
Mexico is gradually becoming better defined.  However, the 
accompanying shower and thunderstorm activity is still poorly 
organized.  Environmental conditions appear conducive for slow 
development of this system, and a tropical depression is likely to 
form during the next day or so as it 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 tonight 
or on Thursday.  
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...80 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.
