Storms A-Brewin'

From NOAA Satellite and Information Service:




On the morning of September 16, 2015, the NOAA NOAA NWS National Hurricane Center notes that showers and thunderstorms in the Atlantic have continued to become better organized during the past few hours. The showers and thunderstorms are associated with a low pressure system located about midway between the Cape Verde Islands and the Lesser Antilles. If these trends continue, a tropical depression could form later this morning before upper-level winds become less conducive for development by tomorrow.

A broad area of low pressure located about 350 miles southwest of the southernmost Cape Verde Islands continues to produce disorganized shower activity. Environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for the formation of a tropical depression over the next few days while the system moves west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph. For the full and updated official forecast, see http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/?atlc.
