Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 PM EDT Sat Oct 24 2020

For the North Atlantic…Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane
Epsilon, located over the west-central Atlantic Ocean.

Satellite, radar and surface data indicate that an area of low
pressure located about 125 miles west-southwest of Grand Cayman
Island continues to become better organized, and if current trends
continue, advisories will be initiated on a tropical depression this
afternoon or evening. Environmental conditions are conducive for
further development while the low drifts toward the north and
northwest this weekend. The system could move near western Cuba on
Monday and move across the southern Gulf of Mexico or the
northeastern portion of the Yucatan Peninsula on Tuesday. Interests
in western Cuba and the Yucatan Peninsula should monitor the
progress of this low. A NOAA Hurricane Hunter reconnaissance
aircraft is en route to investigate the disturbance this afternoon.
Regardless of development, locally heavy rainfall will be possible
over portions of the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Cuba, and northeastern
Yucatan through early next week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…high…near 100 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days…high…near 100 percent.
