A weak area of low pressure, associated with a tropical wave is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the Central Tropical Atlantic. This system is moving westward near 17 mph or 28 km/h. Some slow development of this system is possible during the next few days before upper-level winds become unfavourable for tropical cyclone formation.

Another tropical wave located over the Eastern Tropical Atlantic is moving westward near 12 mph or 19 km/h. Some slow development of this system is expected during the next few days as it moves westward over the tropical Atlantic.
