located a few hundred miles south of the Cabo Verde Islands continue
to show signs of organization. Environmental conditions are
expected to remain conducive for development, and a tropical

eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean.

A trough of low pressure located a few hundred miles northeast of
the central Bahamas is producing a large area of disorganized
showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear
marginally conducive for gradual development during the next few
days, and a tropical depression is likely to form while the system
moves north-northwestward to northward across the western Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.

A tropical wave is expected to emerge off of the west coast of
