 For Thursday Oct. 28, 2010

Our skies will be mostly sunny, with high level clouds. Strong winds and high seas will 

continue today. Winds will be ESE at 10 to 15 mph or greater.  Waves will be 2 to 4 

feet in height and occasionally higher. They will begin to moderate on Friday, as a cold 

front enters the Gulf of Mexico later today. Elsewhere in the tropics, the two large 

areas of disturbed weather in the Atlantic Ocean have become better organized. They 

now have a 50% to 60% chance of developing into a tropical cyclone in the next 48 

hours. These systems currently are not a threat to us. Of more concern to us, is a 

strong tropical wave which is about 2500 miles ESE of Roatan, out in the Atlantic 

Ocean. It is traveling at 15 to 20 mph in a W to WNW direction. This system has a 

20% chance of developing into a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours. If this system 

continues to develop, it could become a threat to us in the next week to ten days.
