Area in Bahamas
It looks like a low pressure is forming between Cuba and the central Bahamas.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...
Heavy Rainfall in SE Bahamas, Turks and Caicos and Hispaniola: A
nearly stationary mid-level low is supporting a surface trough in
the Windward Passage. This feature, coupled with moist trade-
wind flow, is triggering numerous moderate and scattered strong
convection over the SE Bahamas and Turks and Caicos. This
convection is expected to gradually spread southeastward over
Hispaniola this afternoon and evening. Enhanced by favorable
upper-level winds, periods of heavy rainfall are anticipated for
the SE Bahamas and Turks and Caicos through tonight, and over
Turks and Caicos and Hispaniola this evening through Tue. Looking
further ahead, a robust mid-latitude trough digging southeastward
from offshore the SE U.S. toward the Caribbean Sea will reinforce
the mid-level trough and upper-level diffluence over the same
area during midweek. As a result, this rainy pattern could persist
through midweek. These rains have to potential to cause flash
flooding over portions of the southeastern and central Bahamas,
Turks and Caicos, eastern Cuba and Hispaniola through Wed.
