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

1. Northwestern Gulf of Mexico:  A broad and weak area of low pressure just offshore of the middle Texas coast continues to produce some disorganized shower activity along portions of the coast of Texas and over the adjacent waters of
the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. This system is expected to meander for another day or so, and some slow development is possible if it remains offshore.  On Tuesday, the low is forecast to move inland, and further development is not expected.  Regardless, heavy rains could cause some flash flooding across portions of the Texas coast during the next couple of days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.

2. Near the Lesser Antilles and Caribbean Sea:  A tropical wave is producing disorganized thunderstorms and gusty winds across portions of the Lesser Antilles, Puerto Rico, and over the adjacent eastern Caribbean waters.  Environmental conditions are forecast to become more conducive for development when the system reaches the western Caribbean Sea and southwestern Gulf of Mexico late this week and over the weekend, and a tropical depression could form during that time. 
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.

3. Eastern Tropical Atlantic Ocean:  A tropical wave just offshore of the west coast of Africa is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms.  Environmental conditions are forecast to gradually become more conducive for
development, and a tropical depression could form in a few days while the disturbance moves slowly west-northwestward or northwestward over the eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean.  This system could produce areas of heavy rain and gusty winds across portions of the Cabo Verde Islands in a day or two.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.
