For the Arctic basin:

BNWC is issuing advisories on recently upgraded Polar Storm Carol, located over the southern Baffin Bay.

1. A polar wave is expected to exit the coast of Newfoundland tomorrow. Gradual development is likely after that time, and a polar depression is likely to form late this week or over the weekend over the Labrador Sea or Davis Strait while the system moves northwestward. Interests in western Greenland should monitor the progress of this system.


 * Formation chance within 48 hours...medium...50 percent
 * Formation chance within 5 days...high...70 percent
