===================================================
1. Southwestern Atlantic (AL90):  Showers and thunderstorms continue to show some signs of organization in association with a trough of low pressure located about 250 miles northeast of the northern Leeward Islands.  Environmental conditions appear conducive for further development of this system, and a tropical storm is very likely to form this
weekend while it moves northwestward and then northward over the southwestern Atlantic.  Interests in Bermuda should monitor the progress of this system as watches or warnings could be required on Saturday.  For additional information, including gale warnings, please see High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...80 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.
 
2. Central Tropical Atlantic (AL99):  Showers and thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave located about midway between Africa and the Windward Islands remain disorganized.  While there is still some chance that a short-lived tropical depression could form during the next day or so, the system is expected to move through a less conducive environment into Saturday.  The wave could reach a slightly more favorable
environment late this weekend into early next week as it approaches the Windward Islands.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.
