Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL94):

Eastern and Central Tropical Atlantic:
A tropical wave is expected to move off the west coast of Africa 
this weekend. Environmental conditions appear conducive for some 
gradual development of this system during the early and middle 
parts of next week, and a tropical depression could form while it 
moves westward to west-northwestward over the eastern and central 
portions of the tropical Atlantic.
