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

1. Southwestern Gulf of Mexico:
A large area of disturbed weather has formed over Central
America, the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, and the adjacent waters
of the northwestern Caribbean Sea. A broad area of low pressure is
forecast to form from this system over the southwestern Gulf of
Mexico in a day or two. Environmental conditions appear conducive
for gradual development of this system, and a tropical depression
could form by midweek while it moves slowly westward or
west-northwestward. Regardless of development, several days of
heavy rainfall are expected across portions of southern Mexico and
Central America. These rains are likely to cause life-threatening
flooding and flash flooding.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days…medium…60 percent.

2. Southwestern Atlantic Ocean:
An area of low pressure is forecast to form by midweek a few
hundred miles northeast of the central Bahamas. Environmental
conditions could be conducive for some development of this system
thereafter while it moves westward or west-northwestward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days…low…30 percent.

...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR SOUTHERN UTAH...NORTHERN
ARIZONA...AND FAR SOUTHEAST NEVADA...

...Synopsis...
A deepening western trough will bring an increase in southwesterly
flow across much of the desert Southwest this afternoon. Fuels in
this region have seen significant drying after several days of warm
and dry conditions. Guidance indicates fuels in this region are
critically dry, with recent ERCs data indicating 90th percentile for
dryness across much of northern and central Arizona. This is further
supported by active recent fire activity in this region. Relative
humidity reductions to 5-10 percent will overlap sustained winds
15-20 mph across central/northern Arizona, southern Utah, and far
southeastern Nevada where a Critical delineation was maintained with
this outlook. Outside of this region, a more broad area of Elevated
fire weather conditions will be possible across much of
central/southern Utah into southern Arizona, where there is less
confidence is sustained Critical wind speeds. 

Elevated conditions may also extend into portions of western Nevada
in the lee of the Sierras. In this region, afternoon relative
humidity reductions to 15-20 percent will overlap sustained winds
10-15 mph (locally higher) amid modestly receptive fuels.
