A tropical wave moved off the African coast on May 13th.  The system moved across the Atlantic and Caribbean with
minimal development until the 25th, when located in the western Caribbean sea.  A tropical disturbance developed which
moved northwest up the Central American isthmus, eventually developing a broad low level circulation near Cozumel by
the 29th.  The system moved east-northeast at the base of the Westerlies, and developed enough organization to be considered
a tropical depression by the morning of the 31st to the south of Cuba.  The depression moved across Cuba, and an approaching
shortwave trough in the Westerlies led to its transition into an extratropical low/frontal wave while over the Bahamas before
developing gale-force winds. The graphics below show the storm total rainfall for the tropical depression, with data provided
by the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, North Carolina and Servicio Nacional del Auga, the parent agency of
Mexico's national weather service.
