Tropical Update
A large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms located over the northwestern Caribbean Sea and Yucatan Peninsula is associated with a broad area of low pressure. Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development, and this system is likely to become a tropical depression while it moves northeast over the northwestern Caribbean Sea and southeastern Gulf of Mexico during the next couple of days.
