located a few hundred miles south of the Cabo Verde Islands continue 
to show signs of organization.  Environmental conditions are 
expected to remain conducive for development, and a tropical 
depression is likely to form during the next couple of days while 
the system moves generally westward at about 15 mph across the 
eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean.

the central Bahamas is producing a large area of disorganized 
showers and thunderstorms.  Environmental conditions appear 
marginally conducive for gradual development during the next few 
days, and a tropical depression is likely to form while the system 
moves north-northwestward to northward across the western Atlantic. 
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent.
