Atlantic Tropical Weather Outlook
From the National Hurricane Center:
For the North Atlantic…Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
Disorganized shower and thunderstorm activity is decreasing this morning to the east of a small area of low pressure located more than 100 miles east-southeast of Barbados. Increasing upper-level winds are likely to prevent further development of this system during the next couple of days while it moves west-northwestward at about 10 mph. This disturbance could produce increased shower activity and some gusty winds while moving across the Lesser Antilles over the next couple of days. * Formation chance through 48 hours…low…10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days…low…10 percent.
A strong tropical wave has emerged just off the coast of Africa this morning. Although ocean temperatures are still relatively cool over the tropical Atlantic Ocean and are only marginally conducive for development, a small tropical depression could form by early next week while this system moves westward to west-northwestward at about 15 mph across the tropical eastern and central Atlantic Ocean. * Formation chance through 48 hours…low…20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days…medium…40 percent.

Heat Index Values 100+ Today
The Heat Index remains a concern this afternoon and will through Saturday. Air temperatures will top out in the mid 90’s but once you factor in the humidity the heat index will push 100. The heat index is what the temperature actually feels like to your body – any time it’s over 100 – you’re in the danger zone. If you’re going to be working or playing outdoors today remember your heat safety and also your outdoor pets and animals.
