Within 200 nm east of the coast of Florida

.SYNOPSIS...Satellite wind data indicate that a weak area of low
pressure has formed about 100 miles east of Jacksonville, Florida,
and is accompanied by disorganized showers and thunderstorms.
Environmental conditions are forecast to be marginally conducive
for further development, and a tropical or subtropical depression
could form near the southeastern United States late today or over
the weekend if the low remains offshore. Regardless of development,
heavy rainfall is possible across portions of west-central and
southwestern Florida through early Saturday, and across coastal
sections of the Carolinas beginning later on Saturday. An Air
Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate
the system later today. There is a medium chance of tropical
cyclone formation within the next two days, and also through the
next 7 days.
