Special Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
450 PM EDT Tue May 26 2020

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

Special Tropical Weather Outlook issued to discuss the area of low 
pressure near the northeast Florida coast.

An elongated area of low pressure located near the northeast Florida 
coast and an associated upper-level disturbance are producing a 
large area of showers and thunderstorms extending from portions of 
Florida and coastal Georgia eastward for a few hundred miles over 
the Atlantic waters.  Some development of this system is possible 
through early Wednesday if it remains offshore while moving slowly 
northward near the northeastern Florida and Georgia coasts.  The low 
is expected to move well inland over the southeast U.S. by late 
Wednesday, which should end any chance of tropical cyclone 
formation.

Regardless of development, heavy rainfall could cause flash 
flooding over portions of coastal sections of northeastern Florida 
and Georgia through tonight, and over portions of the Carolinas on 
Wednesday.  Gusty winds could also produce rough marine conditions 
and life-threatening surf and rip currents along the coasts of 
northeastern Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas through Wednesday.

For additional information, see products from your local National 
Weather Service office.  The next Special Tropical Weather Outlook 
on this system will be issued by 3 AM EDT Wednesday, or earlier if 
necessary.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent.
