Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 PM EDT Thu Sep 27 2018

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Kirk, which is approaching the Lesser Antilles.

Post-Tropical Cyclone Leslie, located over the central Atlantic
Ocean several hundred miles west of the Azores, remains a powerful
non-tropical low with storm-force winds.  The associated shower
activity is gradually becoming better organized, and Leslie is
expected to again become a subtropical storm, or possibly a tropical
storm, tonight or Friday while it moves west-southwestward at about
10 mph over the north-central Atlantic.  For more information
on this system, see High Seas Forecasts issued by the National
Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.

Shower activity has become more concentrated in association with an
area of disturbed weather located about 250 miles southeast of Cape
Cod, Massachusetts.  While satellite wind data indicate that the
system has gale-force winds, there are currently no signs of a
closed circulation.  Little additional development of this system is
expected before it merges with a frontal system tonight.  For more
information on this system, see High Seas Forecasts issued by the
National Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.
