Tropical Update

A gale-force, non-tropical low pressure system centered a couple of hundred miles NNW of the Madeira Islands continues to produce a broad area of showers and thunderstorms well to the east of the center. This low has changed little in organization over the last 24 hours, and environmental conditions are expected to be only marginally conducive for it to acquire subtropical characteristics over the next day or so as it drifts southwest.

* Formation chance through 48 hours: Low (30%)

* Formation chance through 5 days: Low (30%)
