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

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical 
Depression Omar, located about 475 miles east-northeast of Bermuda.

A nearly stationary and poorly-defined area of low pressure is 
located over the east-central tropical Atlantic about midway 
between the west coast of Africa and the Windward Islands.  This 
system continues to produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms, 
and some slow development could occur during the next couple of 
days before it merges or interacts with the large tropical wave 
currently located just west of the Cabo Verde Islands.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. 
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent.

A tropical wave and area of low pressure located just west of the 
Cabo Verde Islands is producing a large area of disorganized 
showers and thunderstorms.  Gradual development of this system is 
expected as it moves westward to west-northwestward, and a tropical 
depression is likely to form late this weekend or early next week 
when the system reaches the central tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent. 
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.

Another tropical wave is forecast to move off the west coast of 
Africa on Sunday.  Gradual development of this system is then 
expected, and a tropical depression could form by the middle of 
next week while it moves generally westward over the far eastern 
tropical Atlantic. 
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. 
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent.
