Tropical Weather Outlook: At 6:00am Tropical Storm Eta was located near latitude 25.8N, longitude 83.8W, or about 130 miles WSW of Ft. Myers, Florida. Eta was moving to the NNE at 15mph with maximum sustained winds of 70mph. It is important to note that, while weather conditions have improved over Belize, flooding will continue in some communities especially in the Belize district due to downstream river levels rising. A tropical wave located over the eastern Caribbean Sea is producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. This wave is expected to move slowly westward into more favourable environmental conditions. There is a high chance that a tropical depression could form late this week or this weekend when the wave reaches the central or western Caribbean Sea. At 3:00am Tropical Storm Theta was centered near latitude 29.4N, longitude 34.7W, or about 740 miles SW of the Azores. Click for more...

Marine Conditions:

The Caribbean Sea

Tropical Storm Eta is over the SE Gulf of Mexico near 25.0N 84.1W. Winds and seas associated with Eta continue to impact the far NW Caribbean, including the Yucatan Channel. Over this area, fresh to strong winds and seas to 9 ft prevail. Eta will continue to move farther north over the Gulf of Mexico today, with conditions over the NW Caribbean improving today. Elsewhere, moderate to fresh winds prevail across the eastern Caribbean, with gentle to moderate winds over the central Caribbean and remainder of the western Caribbean.

Active convection is covering much of the eastern Caribbean in association to a tropical wave. This tropical wave has a chance of contributing to tropical cyclogenesis over the central or eastern Caribbean later this week or weekend. Please see the latest Atlantic Tropical Weather Outlook for more information.
