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

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane
Larry, located over the central Atlantic several hundred miles
southwest of Bermuda.

1. Showers and thunderstorms have increased today over the
south-central Gulf of Mexico in association with a surface trough
and an upper-level disturbance. The system is expected to move
slowly northeastward over the central and northeastern Gulf of
Mexico during the next couple of days. Upper-level winds are
currently unfavorable for development, but they are forecast to
become more conducive for some limited tropical or subtropical
cyclone development as the system nears the northern Gulf coast on
Wednesday and Wednesday night. The disturbance is then expected to
cross the southeastern United States, and some slight additional
development will be possible after it emerges off the southeastern
United States coast late this week. Regardless of development,
areas of heavy rainfall will be possible across portions of the
Florida panhandle and southern Georgia on Wednesday and Thursday,
with localized flooding possible.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.

Thankfully, according to weather.com Larry's course will stay out in the Atlantic, far from our east coast.
