TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
An approaching tropical wave will produce periods of cloudiness, scattered showers, and isolated thunderstorms over the southern portion of the region from late tonight and may spread northward over the rest of the islands as time progresses. The tropical wave is moving quickly westward near 20 mph or 31 km/h.
Satellite and radar imagery indicate that showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure, located several hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles have become better organized overnight and has formed into tropical storm Dolly.
AtAt 1100 AM today, the center of Tropical Storm Dolly was located near latitude 13.6 North, longitude 38.7 West or about 1500 miles east of the Lesser Antilles. Dolly is
moving toward the west near 24 mph (39 km/h) and this motion is
expected to continue for the next couple of days. On the forecast
track, this system should be nearing the Leeward Islands this
weekend.
Satellite wind data indicate that the maximum sustained winds are
near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength
is forecast during the next 48 hours, and Dolly is forecast to
degenerate into a tropical wave before it reaches the Leeward
Islands.
Heavy rain from this system could begin to affect the
Leeward Islands late Saturday into Sunday. This heavy rain may
produce flash flooding, especially in areas of higher terrain.
