Tropical Weather Outlook

200 AM EDT Mon Jun 1 2020

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

1. The remnants of Eastern Pacific Tropical Storm Amanda are currently 
located inland near the Guatemala-Yucatan Border.  This large 
disturbance is forecast to move slowly northward this morning, 
followed by a northwestward motion later today, and the center of 
the low pressure system could emerge over the southeastern Bay 
of Campeche by this evening. If the remnants move back over water, 
environmental conditions appear conducive to support some 
development, and a new tropical depression could form while the 
system moves little through the middle of this week. Regardless of 
tropical cyclone formation, heavy rainfall is likely to continue 
over portions of southern Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize, 
and western Honduras during the next few days. For additional 
information on the rainfall threat, see products from your national 
meteorological service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent.

Today marks the first day of the Atlantic hurricane season, which
will run until November 30.  Long-term averages for the number of
named storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes are 12, 6, and 3,
respectively.

This product, the Tropical Weather Outlook, briefly describes 
significant areas of disturbed weather and their potential for 
tropical cyclone formation during the next five days.  The issuance 
times of this product are 2 AM, 8 AM, 2 AM, and 8 PM EDT. After the

advisory package may be issued at any time to advise of

The Tropical Cyclone Update is a brief statement to inform of
significant changes in a tropical cyclone or to post or cancel
watches or warnings.  It is used in lieu of or to precede the
issuance of a special advisory package.  Tropical Cyclone Updates,
