The Tropical Weather Outlook
There are two tropical waves approaching the Western Caribbean Sea. The first will enter sometime tomorrow. The second on Saturday.
There is a 50% chance that the tropical wave which just passed over us and is in the Bay of Campeche will become a tropical storm in the next 24 hours. This system poses no threat to the Bay Islands or North Coast of Honduras. Else where tropical storm formation is not expected in the next 24 hours.
