It is now up to 60% in five days.
1. A tropical wave located over the far eastern Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of Africa is producing disorganized cloudiness and showers. Environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for development, and this system could become a tropical depression after the weekend while it moves westward at 15 mph over the tropical Atlantic. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent.

Not going to lie...I was hoping maybe this was the year we'd see a little Fujiwhara effect in the Atlantic given the number of storms. Guess that would be rather terrifying.
1. Showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure located about 1000 miles west-southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands are gradually becoming better organized. Conditions appear conducive for continued development of this system. There is a high likelihood that a tropical depression or tropical storm will form within the next day or two while the disturbance moves west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph over the tropical Atlantic Ocean. * Formation chance through 48 hours...high...80 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.
