There are several tropical disturbances churning right now.

The first is the post-tropical cyclone Paulette located around a few hundred miles south of the Azores and continues to produce a few showers.

This system is drifting southward over marginally warm waters and is expected to begin moving eastward in a couple of days.

The cyclone could develop tropical or subtropical characteristics during the next day or two.

There is a 60 percent chance of formation through the next 48 hours or five days.

There is also an area of small low-pressure system is located near a frontal boundary, just

off the eastern coast of central Florida.

The low is producing a small area of thunderstorms near the coast, and recent buoy and satellite-derived wind data indicate that gale-force winds are occurring in the area.

The low is expected to move inland over Florida later this morning, and significant development is not anticipated.

There is a 10 percent chance of formation through the next 48 hours or five days.

There is also a tropical disturbance currently moving across the eastern North Pacific.

Showers and thunderstorms associated with a broad area of low pressure is located a couple of hundred miles south-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico which are beginning to show signs of organisation.

There is a 70 percent chance of formation through the next 48 hours and a 90 percent chance through the next five days.

According to Cyclocane the following are all the tropical disturbances whirling around the world right now:

  • 23L
  • 22L
  • 93W
  • 93E
  • 20L
  • 98L
