Tropical Outlook

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

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane 
Sam, located more than 600 miles south-southwest of Cape Race, 
Newfoundland, and on Tropical Depression Victor, located over the 
central tropical Atlantic.

1. A large area of disorganized cloudiness and showers over the 
southeastern Bahamas and adjacent southwestern Atlantic waters is 
associated with a surface trough.  Upper-level winds are expected 
to be only marginally conducive, and any development of this system should be slow to occur while it moves west-northwestward at around 10 mph through Monday, followed by a slow northwestward motion through the end of the week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.
