The
Tropical Weather Outlook
Two
areas of low pressure are now located in the Atlantic Ocean. These
invests have been designated 98L and 99L by the NHC. 98L has a 60
percent chance and 99L has a 0% percent chance of becoming a tropical
cyclones during the next 48 hours.
None
of these systems currently pose a threat to us. However, 98L is
centered , well below 16N latitude, all interests in the Bay Islands
and on the north coast of Honduras should monitor it, until it is
certain that it will not enter the Western Caribbean Sea.
Else
where, tropical storm formation is not expected for the next 48
hours.
