could become a little more favorable for gradual development, and a
tropical depression could form early next week while this system
moves westward and then west-northwestward into the central
Atlantic.

* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent
2. A concentrated area of showers and thunderstorms associated with a
broad area of low pressure has developed about 350 miles east of
the Leeward Islands. This activity is expected to move toward the
west-northwest, and additional development, if any, will be slow
to occur during the next several days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent
