For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
Off the East Coast of the United States:
A strong non-tropical low pressure area is expected to form by 
Sunday night off the southeast coast of the United States. This low 
is likely to move slowly and erratically through the middle of next 
week, and some subtropical development is possible during this 
time. Regardless of development, this system will cause high winds, 
coastal flooding, and dangerous surf along portions of the U.S. East 
Coast. Please consult statements and warnings from local National 
Weather Service offices and the Weather Prediction Center for more 
information, along with High Seas Forecasts issued by the National 
Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.
