Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 PM EDT Tue Sep 5 2023

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

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on recently 
upgraded Tropical Storm Lee, located over the central tropical 
Atlantic.

1. Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL96):
A broad low pressure system located several hundred miles southeast 
of the Cabo Verde Islands and a nearby tropical wave are producing a 
large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Environmental 
conditions appear conducive for some gradual development of this 
system, and a tropical depression could form later this week or this 
weekend while the system moves west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph 
over the eastern tropical Atlantic. This system is expected to move 
across the Cabo Verde Islands Wednesday night and Thursday, and 
interests there should monitor its progress.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...60 percent.

2. Northeastern Atlantic (ex-Franklin):
Post-Tropical Cyclone Franklin, located a few hundred miles 
east-northeast of the Azores, is producing limited shower activity 
to the south and east of its center. This system could briefly 
acquire some subtropical or tropical characteristics during the next 
couple of days while it makes a counterclockwise loop over the 
northeastern Atlantic. By late this week, further development is not 
expected as the system is forecast to become increasingly elongated 
and weaken. For additional information on this system, including 
gale warnings, see High Seas Forecasts issued by Meteo France.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.
