FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON RECENTLY
UPGRADED HURRICANE KYLE...LOCATED ABOUT 405 MILES SOUTH OF NANTUCKET
MASSACHUSETTS.

A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE YUCATAN PENINSULA AND THE
NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA IS PRODUCING A LARGE BUT DISORGANIZED
AREA OF CLOUDINESS AND SHOWERS. ALTHOUGH SURFACE PRESSURES ARE NOT
CURRENTLY FALLING...SOME SLOW DEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE DURING THE
NEXT DAY OR TWO AS THE SYSTEM DRIFTS NORTHWARD AWAY FROM YUCATAN.
HEAVY RAINS AND LOCALIZED FLOODING ARE POSSIBLE OVER PORTIONS OF
SOUTHERN MEXICO...THE YUCATAN PENINSULA...BELIZE AND GUATEMALA
DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.

SHOWER ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH A TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED ABOUT MIDWAY
BETWEEN AFRICA AND THE LESSER ANTILLES HAS DIMINISHED. UPPER-LEVEL
WINDS ARE HIGHLY UNFAVORABLE FOR DEVELOPMENT.

A LARGE NON-TROPICAL LOW PRESSURE AREA IS LOCATED OVER THE CENTRAL
NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN ABOUT 475 MILES WEST-SOUTHWEST OF THE
WESTERNMOST AZORES.  THIS SYSTEM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO SLOWLY
ACQUIRE SUBTROPICAL OR TROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS OVER THE NEXT FEW
DAYS AS IT MOVES WEST OR WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 10 TO 15 MPH.

ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED DURING THE
NEXT 48 HOURS.
