TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS/TPC NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
530 AM EDT TUE JUL 20 2004

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

A VIGOROUS TROPICAL WAVE IS ENTERING THE EXTREME EASTERN
CARIBBEAN SEA AND IS MOVING WESTWARD AT 20 TO 25 MPH.  SURFACE
OBSERVATIONS INDICATE THAT THIS WAVE WAS ACCOMPANIED BY SIGNIFICANT
PRESSURE FALLS OVER THE WINDWARD ISLANDS.  HOWEVER...SATELLITE
IMAGES SHOW THAT THIS SYSTEM IS LESS WELL-ORGANIZED THAN IT WAS
YESTERDAY...AND UPPER-LEVEL WINDS HAVE BECOME LESS FAVORABLE FOR
DEVELOPMENT.  SHOWERS AND GUSTY WINDS OVER PORTIONS OF THE LESSER
ANTILLES ARE EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY DIMINISH OVER THE NEXT DAY OR
SO.

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

No problem. Normally I'm in the chat room decoding these, but I was trying to sleep while the mission was going on.

Hopefully, after each mission, I'll be able to post all the decoded obs on here. Key word... hopefully. :D
