Regardless of development, this system is likely to produce locally heavy rainfall over portions of Cuba, southern Florida, the Florida Keys, and the Bahamas during the next several days. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.

It's center drifted a bit to the left in Florida just now. And, there is a new disturbance that's creeping toward PR eventually, Bahamas and florida perhaps, but too soon to say if it will even develop. Don't take your shutters down yet. http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gtwo.php?basin=atlc&fdays=5
