TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK

A weak tropical wave is expected to move over the Lesser Antilles within the

next 24 hours. No significant convection is associated with this wave.

Another tropical wave associated with an area of low pressure located midway between the West coast of Africa and the Leeward islands, continues to produce a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Gradual development of this system is expected and a tropical depression is likely to form in the next day or so, while it moves westward or west northwestward across the Central Tropical Atlantic.

A third tropical wave is located just off the coast of West African. Gradual development of this system is expected and a tropical depression is likely to form by the middle of next week, as it moves generally westward over the far Eastern Tropical Atlantic.
