Tropical Update
Subtropical Storm Wanda wandering across the north Atlantic. Wanda is centered about 935 miles WSW of the Azores and moving east at 6 mph. A turn toward the northeast is expected by tonight, followed by a turn toward the north by late Tuesday. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 45 mph with higher gusts. Some slight fluctuations in strength are anticipated during the next few days. However, Wanda could still become a tropical storm on Tuesday.

A broad area of low pressure located several hundred miles WSW of the Cabo Verde Islands continues to produce disorganized shower activity. This system is moving northwestward into a region of less conducive upper-level winds, and the chances of tropical cyclone development are decreasing.
* Formation chance through 48 hours: Low (10%)
* Formation chance through 5 days: Low (10%)
