Over the Atlantic basin on this Wednesday morning, an area of low pressure is located about midway between the Windward Islands and west Africa.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The associated showers and thunderstorms remain disorganized but some development of this system is possible this week as it meanders over the eastern and central tropical Atlantic Ocean. It has a low (30 percent) chance of formation during the next five days.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Also, a surface observations and satellite derived data indicate that a tropical wave has emerged off the coast of Africa.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The wave is expected to merge with a disturbance centered a couple of hundred miles southeast of the Cabo Verde Islands in the next day or so.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Gradual development of this system is then possible, and a tropical depression could form by this weekend while it moves westward over the eastern and central tropical Atlantic Ocean. It has a medium (60 percent) chance of formation during the next five days.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
