800 AM EDT FRI AUG 15 2008

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

1. SATELLITE IMAGERY AND RADAR DATA FROM PUERTO RICO AND THE DOMINICAN

REPUBLIC INDICATE THAT THE LOW PRESSURE AREA CENTERED OVER THE MONA

PASSAGE IS BECOMING BETTER ORGANIZED. THE SYSTEM MAY DEVELOP INTO

A TROPICAL DEPRESSION BEFORE THE LOW MOVES WEST-NORTHWESTWARD NEAR

OR OVER THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC THIS AFTERNOON. NOAA AND AIR FORCE

RESERVE HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT ARE SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE THE

SYSTEM THIS AFTERNOON.

THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BRING LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS AND GUSTY WINDS

TO PORTIONS OF THE VIRGIN ISLANDS... PUERTO RICO...HISPANIOLA...

EASTERN CUBA...AND THE SOUTHEASTERN BAHAMAS INTERESTS IN THESE

AREAS...AS WELL AS IN THE REMAINDER OF THE BAHAMAS...THE REMAINDER

OF CUBA...AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA...SHOULD MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF

THIS SYSTEM.

2. SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS BECOME A LITTLE MORE

CONCENTRATED WITHIN A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE...ASSOCIATED WITH

A TROPICAL WAVE...THAT IS LOCATED ABOUT 750 MILES EAST OF THE

LESSER ANTILLES. GRADUAL DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM IS POSSIBLE

DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS IT MOVES WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 10

TO 15 MPH.
