PTC 26
The Weather Situation
I am not a fan of potential tropical cyclones as it is confusing to the public. A circulation has not formed yet, but it is likely to form soon, so now advisories can be started. That is why PTC 26 was classified. A broad area of disorganized heavy showers is over the central Caribbean.

Tropical Weather Forecast:
PTC 26 has been advertised by models for days now. There is a good chance that this system will develop and move into the Gulf over the next several days. Interests especailly over the northern Gulf should follow the progress of PTC 26 (Delta) closely.
