MIAMI (CBSMiami) – A low pressure system located about 1,000 miles east of the Leeward Islands is producing a large area of cloudiness and showers, but it currently has limited thunderstorm activity near the center of circulation.

However, a tropical depression is still likely to form later Sunday or on Monday before upper-level winds become less conducive for development.

The low is expected to move northwestward or north-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph over the central Atlantic Ocean during the next few days.

Shower and thunderstorms have increased with a disturbance located near the southeastern Bahamas. Though, there are still no signs of a surface circulation, and conditions do not appear conducive for significant development of this disturbance while it moves west- northwestward at 10 to 15 mph.

Heavy rainfall is possible over portions of the Bahamas today and on Monday.
