SPECIAL TROPICAL DISTURBANCE STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
1130 AM EDT THU MAY 23 2002

A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE ACCOMPANIED BY NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS HAS FORMED IN THE NORTHWEST CARIBBEAN SEA BETWEEN JAMAICA
AND THE CAYMAN ISLANDS. HEAVY RAINFALL HAS BEEN OCCURRING OVER CENTRAL
AND EASTERN CUBA AND JAMAICA...AND LOCALIZED FLOODING CAN BE EXPECTED IN
THESE AREAS TODAY AND TONIGHT.

RECENT SATELLITE DATA AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS SUGGEST THAT THIS SYSTEM
HAS BECOME A LITTLE BETTER ORGANIZED AND SOME ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT IS
POSSIBLE DURING THE MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND. SEVERAL COMPUTER MODELS
INDICATE THAT THIS SYSTEM COULD AFFECT CUBA...THE BAHAMAS AND POSSIBLY
SOUTH FLORIDA OVER THE WEEKEND. AN AIR FORCE RESERVE RECONNAISSANCE
AIRCRAFT IS SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE THE SYSTEM FRIDAY AFTERNOON...IF
NECESSARY.

ALL INTERESTS IN THE NORTHWEST CARIBBEAN SEA...THE BAHAMAS AND FLORIDA
SHOULD CLOSELY MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM AND PRODUCTS FROM
YOUR LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECAST OFFICE.
