An elongated area of low pressure, associated with a tropical wave over the central Tropical Atlantic, currently has a medium chance of Tropical cyclone development during the next five days. This system could develop into a Tropical Depression by the middle of the week as it moves in the direction of the Leeward Islands at 10 to 15 mph or 17 to 24 km/h.
