Gulf of Mexico DUers - keep an eye on what will be Delta





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

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Gamma, located just north of the Yucatan Peninsula over the
extreme southern Gulf of Mexico.

1. A tropical wave accompanied by a low pressure system is located over
the central Caribbean Sea a couple of hundred miles southeast of
Jamaica. The associated shower and thunderstorm activity is
beginning to show some signs of organization. Environmental
conditions are expected to be conducive for additional development,
and a tropical depression is likely to form within the next day or
two. The system should move west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph
across the central and western Caribbean Sea today through Tuesday,
and then move into the southern or southeastern Gulf of Mexico on
Tuesday night and Wednesday. Locally heavy rainfall and gusty
winds will be possible across portions of Hispaniola, Jamaica, Cuba,
and the Cayman Islands during the next few days, and interests on
those islands should monitor the progress of this disturbance.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.

Sharpie to Mr. Trump and ask him to improve the prediction.
