Reports from a NOAA Buoy (BOY?)

A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES OVER EASTERN CARIBBEAN SEA
BETWEEN PUERTO RICO AND THE NETHERLAND ANTILLES. THE ASSOCIATED
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS BECOME MORE CONCENTRATED...AND REPORTS
FROM A NOAA BUOY INDICATE THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION MAY BE BECOMING
BETTER ORGANIZED. UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE CURRENTLY FAVORABLE FOR
DEVELOPMENT...AND THE SYSTEM COULD BECOME A TROPICAL DEPRESSION
LATER TODAY AS IT MOVES WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 10 TO 15 MPH. AN AIR
FORCE RESERVE UNIT RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT IS SCHEDULED TO
INVESTIGATE THE SYSTEM TODAY...IF NECESSARY.
