Tropical Update
A non-tropical low pressure system is expected to form off the east coast of the United States during the next day or so. The frontal low will move generally NNE through the middle of the week, and the system will likely bring rain and wind impacts to portions of the mid-Atlantic and northeast U.S. coast. By the end of the week, the low could acquire some tropical or subtropical characteristics while it moves east away from the U.S. coast.
* Formation chance through 48 hours: Low (0%)
* Formation chance through 5 days: Medium (40%)
