Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 PM EDT Fri Oct 23 2020

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

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane 
Epsilon, located over the west-central Atlantic a couple of hundred 
miles northeast of Bermuda.

Satellite images and surface observations indicate that the broad 
area of low pressure located just west of Grand Cayman Island 
continues to show signs of organization.  Environmental conditions 
appear conducive for further development, and a tropical depression 
will likely form during the next day or two while the low drifts 
toward the northwest.  The system could move near western Cuba by 
Sunday and move slowly across the southeastern Gulf of Mexico by 
early next week.  Interests in western Cuba, the Florida Keys, and 
southern Florida should monitor the progress of this disturbance. 
Regardless of development, locally heavy rainfall will be possible 
over portions of the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Cuba, southern 
Florida, the Florida Keys, and the northwestern Bahamas through the 
weekend.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent.
