Tropical Wave from Africa Being Monitored by Hurricane Forecasters

A tropical wave off the west coast of Africa could gradually develop as it moves west across the Atlantic Ocean, according to the National Hurricane Center. While the wave has a near 0% chance of developing into a tropical storm within the next two days, forecasters say environmental conditions could be conducive to gradual development as it moves across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic during the middle of next week. The wave has a 20% chance of development in the next seven days.
