Tropical wave from Africa being monitored for potential development.
TL;DR
Forecasters are monitoring a tropical wave that is expected to move off the west coast of Africa into the tropical Atlantic, with environmental conditions conducive for gradual development. If it becomes a named storm, it would be an unusual event, as tropical development is rare this time of year in that part of the Atlantic. Forecasters are also monitoring four other tropical waves in the Atlantic basin, but none are currently forecast to develop further.
