1030 PM EDT TUE SEP 30 2003
FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...
THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON TROPICAL
STORM KATE...LOCATED ABOUT 1570 MILES EAST OF BERMUDA.
SATELLITE IMAGERY SUGGESTS THAT THERE HAS BEEN LITTLE CHANGE WITH
THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IN THE SOUTHWESTERN GULF OF MEXICO. THIS
LOW...IN COMBINATION WITH A FRONTAL TROUGH...IS PRODUCING WINDS TO
GALE FORCE OVER PORTIONS OF THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO.
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY PERSISTS NEAR THE CENTER OF THE LOW AND THIS
SYSTEM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO SEPARATE FROM THE FRONTAL ZONE AND
DEVELOP INTO A TROPICAL CYCLONE OVER THE NEXT DAY OR SO AS IT MOVES
VERY SLOWLY WESTWARD. A RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT IS SCHEDULED TO
INVESTIGATE THE AREA TOMORROW AFTERNOON...IF NECESSARY. ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION ON THIS SYSTEM CAN BE FOUND IN HIGH SEAS FORECASTS
ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE...UNDER AWIPS HEADER
NFDHSFAT1 AND WMO HEADER FZNT01 KWBC.
ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH
THURSDAY.
