TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
The lower atmosphere over our region will remain sufficiently moist and unstable to produce some showery periods over the islands during the next 24 hours.

A very weak tropical wave is located just to the east of the Lesser Antilles. This wave is in a dry environment; therefore, very little precipitation is associated with the wave at this time.

Two other tropical waves located over the central and Eastern tropical Atlantic are moving westward near 15 mph or 24 km/h.
