530 PM EDT THU AUG 17 2006

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE...LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 110 MILES
SOUTHEAST OF CHARLESTON SOUTH CAROLINA...CONTINUES TO PRODUCE
DISORGANIZED AREAS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THERE IS STILL A
SMALL CHANCE THAT THIS SYSTEM COULD BECOME A TROPICAL DEPRESSION
TONIGHT OR EARLY FRIDAY BEFORE UPPER LEVEL WINDS BECOME UNFAVORABLE
FOR SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT. EVEN IF A DEPRESSION DOES NOT
FORM...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH BRIEF GUSTY WINDS COULD
AFFECT COASTAL AREAS OF SOUTH CAROLINA...GEORGIA...AND
NORTHEASTERN FLORIDA DURING THE NEXT DAY OR SO AS THE SYSTEM
DRIFTS SOUTHWESTWARD.

ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH
FRIDAY.
