SYNOPSIS...A tropical wave is over the eastern Caribbean with axis near 66W. A low pressure of 1006 mb is analyzed along the wave axis near 12N66W. The environment is forecast to become more conducive for development, and a tropical depression is likely to form in the next day or so. The low is forecast to move west- northwestward and be over the central Caribbean Sea this weekend where conditions are expected to be conducive for additional development. Locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds are likely to affect the Windward Islands, northern Venezuela, and the ABC island chain today. These impacts are likely to spread to northeastern Colombia later this evening. Interests in Jamaica should closely monitor the progress of this system.
The forecast models show the system entering the Gulf of Mexico by next Tuesday, 27 Sep.
