A low pressure system was developing east of the Leeward Islands on Sunday night.\u00a0 The low pressure system was centered about 550 miles (890 km) east of the Leeward Islands.\u00a0 The structure of the low pressure system was still organizing.\u00a0 Thunderstorms were forming in bands southeast of the low level center of circulation.\u00a0 Bands in the other parts of the circulation consisted primarily of showers and lower clouds.<\/p>\n
The low level center appeared to be located east of a small upper level low.\u00a0 The upper low was causing southerly winds which were creating vertical wind shear over the western half of the surface center.\u00a0 Some upper level divergence appeared to be occurring over the eastern half of the low level circulation.\u00a0 The upper level divergence could be contributing to the development of the thunderstorms in that region.<\/p>\n
The low pressure system will move through an environment somewhat favorable for development during the next several days.\u00a0 The low will move over water where the Sea Surface Temperature is near 28\u00b0C.\u00a0 It will move into a region where the upper level winds will not be too strong and there will not be too much vertical wind shear.\u00a0 The National Hurricane Center is indicating that there is a 50% probability that a tropical or subtropical cyclone forms during the next five days.<\/p>\n
The upper level low will steer the developing low pressure system toward the northwest on Monday.\u00a0 A much large upper level trough off the east coast of the U.S. will steer the low pressure system more toward the north on Tuesday and Wednesday.\u00a0 On its anticipated track the low pressure system will pass northeast of the Leeward Islands early next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
