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

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical 
Storm Leslie, located over the central Atlantic Ocean.

Near the Cabo Verde Islands (AL94):
A low pressure system located a couple of hundred miles west of the 
Cabo Verde Islands continues to produce an area of showers and 
thunderstorms on its east side.  If the circulation of the system 
becomes better defined and the showers and thunderstorms persist, 
the low could become a short-lived tropical depression or storm 
later this morning while it moves west-northwestward.  Strong 
upper-level winds and dry air should end the chances of development 
by tonight or Sunday.  Heavy rains and gusty winds are occurring 
over the western Cabo Verde Islands, and those conditions are 
expected to continue for a few more hours.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.
