A tropical storm watch is now in effect for the Lower Keys south of the Seven Mile Bridge and the Dry Tortugas as Potential Tropical Cyclone # 9 moves slowly in the western Caribbean.
Potential TC # 9 is forecast to strengthen significantly once it enters the Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday. Additional watches and warnings are expected for portions of Florida.
At 5 pm Monday, Potential TC # 9 was about 315 miles southeast of the western tip of Cuba. Maximum sustained winds were 35 miles per hour, and the system (which at that time did not have a closed circulation) was moving north-northwest at 7 miles per hour.
