Friday Tropics Update

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

A trough of low pressure located along the coast of Honduras is 
producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the 
northwestern Caribbean Sea.  Some gradual development is possible 
today while the disturbance drifts west-northwestward over the Gulf 
of Honduras. Subsequent development is unlikely once the system 
moves inland over northern Central America and southeastern Mexico 
Saturday.  Regardless of development, locally heavy rainfall is 
possible over Honduras, Belize and southeastern Mexico through the 
weekend.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
