Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 AM EDT Mon Jul 9 2018

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

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Chris, located a couple of hundred miles south-southeast
of the North Carolina Outer Banks.

1. An area of showers and thunderstorms associated with the remnants
of Beryl is producing locally heavy rainfall and strong gusty winds
over the northeastern Caribbean Sea and the northern Leeward
Islands.  The disturbance is expected to move west-northwestward
for the next day or so, passing over the Virgin Islands and Puerto
Rico today, and over Hispaniola tonight.  Unfavorable upper-level
winds and interaction with land should prevent redevelopment during
the next day or two, but environmental conditions could become
somewhat conducive for regeneration of a tropical cyclone later this
week when the system is forecast to turn northward over the Bahamas
and the western Atlantic.  Additional information on this system can
be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather
Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent
