1. Central Subtropical Atlantic (Remnants of Emily):
An area of low pressure located about 1000 miles east-southeast of
Bermuda (the remnants of former Tropical Storm Emily) continues to
produce a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms.
Upper-level winds are forecast to become more conducive for
development later today, and this system is likely to regenerate
into a tropical storm by Friday while the system moves northward
over the subtropical central Atlantic. For additional information on
this system, including gale warnings, see High Seas Forecasts issued

an area of low pressure located several hundred miles west of the
Cabo Verde Islands. Despite marginal environmental conditions,
slow development is possible and the low could become a tropical
depression by the weekend while the system moves west-northwestward
to northwestward into the central tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.
