Tropical Update – 10/7

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 AM EDT Thu Oct 7 2021

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

1. A weak area of low pressure located about 100 miles off the coasts 
of Georgia and South Carolina continues to produce disorganized 
showers and thunderstorms, well to the northeast of the center of 
circulation.  Strong upper-level winds should limit significant 
tropical or subtropical development during the next few days while 
the low moves northeastward at about 5 mph off the coasts of the 
Carolinas.  Some non-tropical development will be possible over the 
weekend due to the system interacting with a frontal boundary.  
Regardless of development, this system could bring gusty winds and 
locally heavy rain to portions of the Carolinas through the weekend.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.
