"SATELLITE IMAGERY AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE THAT THE LOW
PRESSURE AREA OVER THE CENTRAL CARIBBEAN SEA HAS CHANGED LITTLE IN
ORGANIZATION THIS MORNING. HOWEVER...THERE REMAINS POTENTIAL FOR
SLOW DEVELOPMENT...AND A TROPICAL OR SUBTROPICAL CYCLONE COULD
DEVELOP DURING THE NEXT DAY OR SO AS THE SYSTEM MOVES SLOWLY
NORTHEASTWARD. AN AIR FORCE RESERVE RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT IS
SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE THIS SYSTEM LATER TODAY...IF NECESSARY.
EVEN IF A TROPICAL CYCLONE DOES NOT DEVELOP...THE SYSTEM SHOULD
PRODUCE HEAVY RAINFALL...CAUSING LIFE-THREATENING FLOODING AND MUD
SLIDES...ACROSS PORTIONS OF HISPANIOLA...PUERTO RICO...THE VIRGIN
ISLANDS...AND THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF
DAYS. INTERESTS IN THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN CARIBBEAN SEA SHOULD
MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM."

"MIAMI -- Storms brewing in the central Caribbean Sea could develop into a
tropical cyclone this week while dropping heavy rains and causing flooding
and mud slides on Puerto Rico and the island of Hispaniola, forecasters said.
Puerto Rico, forecasters at the National Hurricane Center in Miami
reported. Though the system had no defined center, storm activity became
better organized Tuesday and could develop into a tropical or subtropical
storm by Thursday, forecasters said.
Hispaniola, Puerto Rico and the northern Leeward Islands by Thursday, no
matter what happens with the storm, forecasters said. "The primary threat
right now is heavy rain that will continue whether the system develops or
not," said Jack Beven, a hurricane specialist at the center. Satellite
rainfall estimates showed more than 10 inches of rain falling per
hour. The next tropical storm to form in the hurricane season that ends
Nov. 30 would be named Otto."
