Atlantic Tropical Weather Outlook

25724Off the East Coast of the United States:

A storm-force non-tropical low pressure area is located along a frontal boundary a few hundred miles off the southeast coast of the United States.

This low is likely to move slowly and erratically over the next couple of days. If the low remains over the Gulf Stream and becomes detached from the front, it could briefly acquire some subtropical cyclone characteristics during the middle to latter portions of the week.

The system is expected to begin to move northeastward away from the the eastern United States later this week, and environmental conditions are expected to become unfavorable for development by the weekend. Regardless of the status of the system, high winds, coastal flooding, and dangerous surf are expected along portions of the U.S. East Coast during the next few days.
