<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Gaston, located about 600 miles east of Bermuda.
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">1. A weak area of low pressure located near the north coast of central
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Cuba continues to produce a large area of disorganized cloudiness
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">and thunderstorms. Upper-level winds are not conducive for
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">significant development today while this system moves westward
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">through the Straits of Florida. The low is expected to move into
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">the southeastern Gulf of Mexico on Monday, where environmental
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">conditions could become somewhat more conducive for development.
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Regardless of development, heavy rainfall and gusty winds are likely
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">over portions of the central and northwestern Bahamas, and Cuba
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">through tonight. Gusty winds and locally heavy rainfall will spread
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">into parts of southern Florida and the Florida Keys later today.
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Interests elsewhere in Florida and the eastern Gulf of Mexico should
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">continue to monitor the progress of this disturbance. A NOAA
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate this system
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">this afternoon, if necessary.
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">2. Shower and thunderstorm activity has increased during the past few
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">hours in association with an area of low pressure located about 250
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">miles west of Bermuda. While environmental conditions are only
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">marginally conducive, some additional development of this system is
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">possible during the next day or so while it moves west-northwestward
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">at about 10 mph. As the low approaches the coast of North Carolina
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">by mid-week, conditions are expected to become unfavorable for
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">further development. For additional information on this system, see
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service. An Air
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate

<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent

<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">3. A tropical wave is expected to move offshore of the west coast of
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Africa on Tuesday. Conditions are expected to be favorable for
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">development of this system later this week while it moves westward
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">at 15 to 20 mph over the tropical eastern Atlantic.
