SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED WITH A BROAD AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE LOCATED ABOUT 800 MILES WEST-SOUTHWEST OF THE CAPE VERDE
ISLANDS HAVE INCREASED IN ORGANIZATION OVERNIGHT. ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITIONS APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR DEVELOPMENT AND A TROPICAL
DEPRESSION COULD FORM AT ANY TIME. THERE IS A HIGH CHANCE...80
PERCENT...OF THIS SYSTEM BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE
NEXT 48 HOURS AS IT MOVES WESTWARD AT 10 TO 15 MPH.

REMNANTS OF GASTON

Dry air has continued to dessicate the storm formerly known as Gaston, but forecasters still expect that to change as the system continues to move west. The National Hurricane Center gives the storm a 70 percent chance of regenerating during the next two days.

With regeneration expected to happen eventually Gaston is definitely a storm to watch, especially as it appears westward bound for the Caribbean Sea rather than turning north like Danielle, Earl and Fiona. :puter
