TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
An abundance of moisture and instability in the lower levels of the atmosphere over the Lesser Antilles will cause some showers to develop over the region during the forecast period.
A tropical wave, located several hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles, is moving westward at about 15 mph or 24 km/h. This wave is expected to cause cloudiness, showers and possibly isolated thunderstorms over the region from late tomorrow.
A third tropical wave, located over the Central Atlantic, is moving westward at about 15 mph or 24 km/h. Environmental conditions appear to be conducive for further development of this system. This wave has a medium chance of developing into a tropical depression within the next 48 hours.
