{{Information

−
|Description={{en|1=A broad area of low pressure covered the south central Caribbean for several days. On the 30th of October,

−
satellite imagery indicated the low pressure area was becoming better organized. Surface observations indicated

−
it became a tropical depression on the 31st. Kingston, Jamaica reported sustained winds of 45 mph with gusts to

−
59 mph in a squall. Reconnaisance aircraft reported a central pressure of 1005 hPa. The pressure gradient between

−
a large high over the eastern United States and this low led to a large area of 25-35 mph in areas in between.

−

−
On the night of the 31st, an upper low formed over the northern Yucatan peninsula, luring a tropical

−
depression northwest, and created vertical wind shear over the system. By the morning of the 1st, much

−
of the thunderstorm activity lay northeast of the center. Over the next couple days, thunderstorms would

−
reflare near the center. Overnight on the 2nd/3rd, an intense burst moved into the lower Florida

−
Keys, and the system may have briefly become a tropical storm. Boca Chica reported sustained

−
winds of 46 mph with gusts to 64 mph. Cudjoe Key reported east winds of 46 mph with gusts to

−
69 mph. Reconnaisance aircraft in the system at the time reported a pressure drop to 998 hPa

−
and winds as high as 92 mph along with severe turbulance.

−

−
By the morning of the 4th, the remainaing low level swirl off western Florida interacted with a disturbance

−
aloft, and the resulting extratropical low moved across north Florida peninsula on the 4th which then shot

−
northeast offshore the Carolina Capes by the morning of the 5th. Its track is below, produced by the

−
National Hurricane Center.}}
