Near the Windward Islands and the Caribbean Sea (AL98): The only disturbance in the tropics today is a tropical wave currently located near the Windward Islands. The system is moving quickly westward at 20 to 25 mph into the eastern Caribbean Sea. Additional development is forecast to be limited over the next day or two, due to the fast forward motion of the wave. The system is then expected to slow down over the central Caribbean Sea during the middle portion of the week, where environmental conditions could become more conducive for development. A tropical depression could from over the central Caribbean Sea by the middle to latter portion of this week. Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent and formation chance through 7 days...medium...60 percent.
