A broad area of low pressure is forming just to the south-southwest
of the Cabo Verde Islands, in association with a tropical wave
producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms.
Further development of this low is possible, and a tropical
depression could form over the weekend before environmental
conditions become unfavorable by early next week as the system moves
west-northwestward or northwestward at around 10-15 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.

A broad area of low pressure could form in the central or western
Gulf of Mexico by the beginning of next week. Some slow development
of this system is possible thereafter as it moves westward and
approaches the western Gulf of Mexico coastline by the middle of
next week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
