Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 PM EDT Sat Aug 23 2025
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
1. Southwestern Atlantic (AL90):
Satellite images and Air Force Reserve aircraft reconnaissance data
indicate that an area of low pressure about 400 miles south-
southeast of Bermuda continues to get better-defined, and recent
satellite-derived winds indicate that the low pressure area has
gale-force winds east of the center. This system is expected to
become a tropical storm this afternoon or evening, with further
intensification likely through Sunday while the low moves northward
at 10 to 15 mph over the southwestern Atlantic. Interests in
Bermuda should monitor the progress of this system, though the
threat to that island appears to be less than yesterday. For
additional information, including gale warnings, please see High
Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...near 100 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...near 100 percent.
2. East of the Windward Islands (AL99):
Showers and thunderstorms continue in association with a tropical
wave located about 650 miles east of the Windward Islands. Some
development of this system could occur during the next couple of
days while the system moves quickly westward at about 20 to 25 mph.
Locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds are possible across portions
of the Windward Islands as the system moves through on Sunday and
Monday. By Tuesday, conditions over the central Caribbean are
expected to be unfavorable for further development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.
