Disturbance 1. Northeastern Atlantic: A strong non-tropical area of low pressure is located over the northeastern Atlantic several hundred miles west of the coast of Portugal. This system could acquire some subtropical or tropical characteristics later today or on Sunday but the opportunity for tropical or subtropical development should end Sunday night when the system encounters unfavorable environmental conditions. Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent and formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.

Disturbance 2. Central Subtropical Atlantic: A trough of low pressure is located over the central subtropical Atlantic a few hundred miles east of Bermuda. Development of this system, if any, is expected to be slow to occur while it drifts westward through Sunday and then accelerates northward early next week. Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent and formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.

Disturbance 3. Eastern Tropical Atlantic: A tropical wave is expected to move off the west coast of Africa on Monday. An area of low pressure could form and subsequent development will be possible while the system moves westward at 15 to 20 mph across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic through the end of next week. Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent and formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.
