A LARGE AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED WITH A BROAD
LOW PRESSURE AREA IS CENTERED ABOUT 400 MILES SOUTHWEST OF THE
CAPE VERDE ISLANDS.  THIS SYSTEM HAS BECOME A LITTLE BETTER
ORGANIZED TODAY...AND A TROPICAL DEPRESSION COULD FORM DURING THE
NEXT DAY OR TWO AS IT MOVES WESTWARD AT ABOUT 10 MPH.
