Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 AM EDT Tue Oct 12 2021
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Satellite-derived wind data indicate that the tropical wave,
located a little over 150 miles east of the Windward Islands, has
become less defined overnight. While this system continues to
produce showers and thunderstorms primarily east of its center,
strong upper-level winds will likely prevent further development
during the next couple of days. Regardless of development, the
system could produce locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds across
portions of the central and northern Lesser Antilles today.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.
2. Another tropical wave moving over Hispaniola is producing a large
area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Although
environmental conditions are not forecast to be conducive for
development of this system, a broad area of low pressure, however,
is expected to form near the southeast Bahamas on Wednesday and
drift generally eastward through the end of the week. Regardless
of development, locally heavy rainfall is possible over portions of
the Lesser Antilles, Puerto Rico, and Hispaniola during the next
couple of days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.
