Disturbance in the Atlantic
The are marked #1 is a little better organized and the chances of it becoming a TD have been upgraded by the NHC:
1. A LARGE AREA OF CLOUDINESS AND THUNDERSTORMS CENTERED ABOUT 275 MILES EAST-NORTHEAST OF THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS IS ASSOCIATED WITH A TROPICAL WAVE INTERACTING WITH AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW. THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF A SURFACE CIRCULATION AT THIS TIME...BUT UPPER-LEVEL WINDS COULD BECOME A LITTLE MORE FAVORABLE FOR SLOW DEVELOPMENT DURING THE NEXT DAY OR TWO AS THE ACTIVITY MOVES TOWARD THE WEST-NORTHWEST AT 20 TO 25 MPH. THERE IS A MEDIUM CHANCE...30 TO 50 PERCENT...OF THIS SYSTEM BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS.
Thank you for the information i'm getting from you. Keep it up

what is forming east southeast of these two storms on the western tip of Africa?

AR that is looking like a good bit of activity at the moment but you never know from this far away. Maybe it is a tropical wave coming off, but I have not heard it mentioned in the discussions yet - however I am going to check!

We are counting on you to keep us up to date. Sure appreciate what you do. Beats looking all over for information. I am on the upper East Coast of the U.S. in Rhode Island. I have a daughter living on the coast of North Carolina, and another, living in Antigua. All reasons to be aware of the weather. Thanks. Jan
