Tropical Storm Fiona continues to be fairly weak and disorganized over the open Atlantic. Fiona is forecast to weaken over the weekend and remain no threat to land.
- Meteorologists continue to monitor a weakening Fiona
- Two new tropical waves are developing
A tropical wave located about 600 miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands is producing a disorganized area of cloudiness and shower activity.
Development, if any, during the next couple of days should be slow to occur as the system encounters a dry and stable air mass.
After that time, weather conditions are expected to become more conducive for development, and a tropical depression could form early next week while the system moves westward at about 15 mph across the tropical Atlantic Ocean.
We will continue to closely monitor this system through the weekend and into next week.
Another tropical wave is forecast to move off of the coast of Africa on Saturday. Weather conditions appear conducive for gradual development of this system early next week while it moves generally west-northwestward over the eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean.
