TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
A tropical wave just to the east of the Lesser Antilles is moving westward near 23 mph or 37 km/h. This wave is expected to cause cloudiness, showers and isolated thunderstorms over the Eastern Caribbean region during the next 24 hours.

A large plume of Saharan dust trails this tropical wave and as a result a
resurgence in dust concentrations over the region is expected after the passage of this tropical wave.

Another tropical wave located over the eastern tropical Atlantic is moving
westward near 23 mph or 37 km/h.

Tropical cyclone formation is not expected over the tropical Atlantic during
the next five days.
