Weather conditions and general forecast:
The tropical disturbance is apparently
central this morning over the eastern por-
tion of the Gulf of Mexico. The only por-
ton of the United States thus far within
its influence is extreme southern Florida,
where high winds and heavy rains continue.
Pressure is high to the northeast of the dis
turbance, with the crest over New England
and the middle Atlantic states with fairly
steep gradients intervening. Brisk to high
northeastery winds will therefore prevail
along the south Atlantic coast with rain
in the gulf and south Atlantic states.
The pressure distribution, already de-
scribed. is not favorable to a rapid move
ment of the tropical disturbance north
The winds along the middle Atlantic
coast will be fresh northeasterly; the
south Atlantic coast brisk northeasterly;
on the east gulf coast brisk east to north
east; on the west gulf coast fresh to brisk
northeast to north, and on the lower lakes
fresh to brisk southerly
