Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 PM EDT Sun Aug 8 2021

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

An elongated area of low pressure located several hundred miles
east of the Windward Islands continues to produce disorganized
showers and thunderstorms.  Environmental conditions are expected
to be favorable to support some gradual development over the next
few days, and this system could become a tropical depression while
it moves west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph.  The disturbance is
forecast to reach portions of the Lesser Antilles late Monday, and
then move near the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico on Tuesday, and
near Hispaniola around the middle of this week.  Interests in those
areas should monitor the progress of this system, as it could bring
locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds to portions of that area.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...50 percent.

Showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure
located over the tropical Atlantic about midway between the Cabo
Verde Islands and the Lesser Antilles have diminished this morning.
Although environmental conditions appear to be only marginally
conducive for development, this system could still become a
tropical depression later this week while it moves toward the
west-southwest or west at around 10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.
