For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:

Off the East Coast of the United States:
A strong non-tropical low pressure area is expected to form by
Sunday night off the southeast coast of the United States. This low

week, and some subtropical development is possible during this
time. Regardless of development, this system will cause high winds,
coastal flooding, and dangerous surf along portions of the U.S. East
Coast. Please consult statements and warnings from local National
Weather Service offices and the Weather Prediction Center for more
information, along with High Seas Forecasts issued by the National
Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.
