530 AM EST TUE NOV 4 2003

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

A NON-TROPICAL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS LOCATED IN THE EAST-CENTRAL
GULF OF MEXICO ABOUT 250 MILES SOUTHEAST OF NEW ORLEANS LOUISIANA.
THERE HAS BEEN LITTLE CHANGE IN THIS SYSTEM OVER THE PAST SEVERAL
HOURS...AND THE ASSOCIATED THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY REMAINS LIMITED.
WHILE UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE NOT PARTICULARLY FAVORABLE FOR
DEVELOPMENT...THERE IS STILL SOME POTENTIAL FOR SUBTROPICAL OR
TROPICAL CYCLONE DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT DAY OR SO. THE LOW IS
CURRENTLY MOVING WESTWARD AT 15 TO 20 MPH...AND A TURN TO THE
WEST-NORTHWEST IS EXPECTED LATER TODAY. INTERESTS AROUND THE
NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF
THIS SYSTEM. AN AIR FORCE RESERVE HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT IS
SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE THE SYSTEM LATER TODAY...IF NECESSARY.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND IN HIGH SEAS FORECASTS ISSUED
BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE...UNDER AWIPS HEADER NFDHSFAT2 AND
WMO HEADER FZNT02 KWBC...AND ALSO IN FORECASTS AND STATEMENTS
ISSUED BY LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECAST OFFICES.

A WESTWARD-MOVING AREA OF DISTURBED WEATHER IS LOCATED OVER THE
EAST-CENTRAL CARIBBEAN SEA. DEVELOPMENT...IF ANY...IS EXPECTED TO
BE SLOW.

ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH
WEDNESDAY.
