Tropical Update
A tropical wave continues to produce a large area of disorganized cloudiness and thunderstorms over the eastern tropical Atlantic a few hundred miles SSW of the Cabo Verde Islands. Gradual development of this system is possible, and a tropical depression could form around the middle to latter portion of the week before environmental conditions become less favorable by this weekend. This system is expected to move west to WNW at 15 to 20 mph across the tropical Atlantic during the next several days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours: Low (20%)
