Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 AM EDT Fri Sep 28 2018
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Kirk, located over the eastern Caribbean Sea.
1. Post-Tropical Cyclone Leslie is located over the central Atlantic
Ocean, several hundred miles west of the Azores. Shower activity
has gradually increased near the center of the cyclone since last
night and Leslie is expected to once again become a subtropical
storm later today or tomorrow. Earlier satellite data indicated
that the powerful low is producing storm-force winds that extend
several hundred miles from the center, and Leslie will likely
continue producing strong winds and high seas over a large portion
of the central Atlantic for the next few days regardless of when it
completes its transition to a subtropical storm. For more
information on this system, see High Seas Forecasts issued by the
National Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.
High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service can be
found under AWIPS header NFDHSFAT1, WMO header FZNT01 KWBC, and
