A tropical wave located about 600 miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands is producing a disorganized area of cloudiness and shower activity. Development, if any, during the next couple of days should be slow to occur as the system encounters a dry and stable air mass. After that time, environmental conditions are expected to become more conducive for development, and a tropical depression could form early next week while the system moves westward at about 15 mph across the tropical Atlantic Ocean. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...50 percent A tropical wave is forecast to move off of the coast of Africa on Saturday. Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development of this system early next week while it moves generally west-northwestward over the eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent * Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent $$ Forecaster Beven
