<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane Florence, located over the central Atlantic Ocean. The Weather Prediction Center is issuing
advisories on Tropical Depression Gordon, located over Arkansas.
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">1. Shower and thunderstorm activity associated with an area of low pressure centered about 500 miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands has become a little
more concentrated over the past couple of hours, but recent satellite data show that this system is still fairly broad and elongated. Environmental conditions appear conducive for development, and a tropical depression is expected to form within the next
day or so while the system moves slowly westward across the tropical Atlantic Ocean.
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent.
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.

<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">2. Showers and thunderstorms have increased in association with a tropical wave and accompanying low pressure system near the west coast of Africa. Environmental
conditions appear conducive for development, and a tropical depression or tropical storm is likely to form later today or over the weekend while the wave moves westward or west-northwestward over the far eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean. Interests in the Cabo
Verde Islands should monitor the progress of this system, and advisories on a potential tropical
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">cyclone or tropical depression could be issued later today.
<span-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...80 percent.
