A tropical wave associated with an area of disturbed weather, is located over the central Tropical Atlantic. This system is moving westward near 12 mph or 19 km/h and some development is possible, as it approaches the Lesser Antilles by midweek. Another tropical wave located over the eastern Tropical Atlantic is moving westward near 17 mph or 28 km/h
