A trough of low pressure is producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the western Atlantic Ocean. Development, if any, of this system should be slow to occur during the next few days before environmental conditions become unfavorable. This system is expected to move little during the next few days. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent. && Public Advisories on Potential Tropical Cyclone Eight are issued under WMO header WTNT33 KNHC and under AWIPS header MIATCPAT3.
