National Hurricane Center (NHC) – In the East of the Windward Islands, a broad area of low pressure associated with a tropical wave is located several hundred miles east of the Windward Islands.

While this system has not become significantly better organized since yesterday, some slow development remains possible during the next couple of days while it moves westward across the tropical Atlantic and into the eastern Caribbean Sea.

Regardless of development, locally heavy rains and strong gusty winds are possible across portions of the Lesser Antilles during the next day or two.

Environmental conditions are expected to become unfavourable for the development of this system by the middle of the week. It has a low (20 percent) chance of formation during the next 48 hours and in the next 7 days.
