Special Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
430 PM EDT Tue Oct 10 2023

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

Special outlook issued to update the discussion of the system in the
southwestern Gulf of Mexico (AL93).

Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL92):
A broad area of low pressure located several hundred miles southwest
of the Cabo Verde Islands continues to produce a large area of
showers and thunderstorms. This activity has become a bit more
concentrated while also showing signs of organization, and
environmental conditions appear conducive for additional
development. A tropical depression is likely to form during the next
couple of days while the system moves west-northwestward or
northwestward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...80 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...80 percent.

Southwestern Gulf of Mexico (AL93):
Updated: Showers and thunderstorms remain disorganized this
afternoon in association with a broad area of low pressure located
over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico. Data from an Air Force
Reserve Reconnaissance aircraft investigating the system has so far
found the circulation remains elongated and not well-defined, with
maximum sustained winds of only 20-25 mph. Based on the current
structure, additional development is becoming unlikely before the
system merges with a developing frontal boundary over the western
Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday.

Regardless of tropical cyclone development, the system is forecast
to produce gale-force winds over portions of the northern Gulf of
Mexico by tomorrow, and potentially heavy rainfall along the Gulf
Coast by the latter portion of this week. For more information, see
products from your local National Weather Service office, and high
seas forecasts issued by the National Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.
