ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ARE NOT CONDUCIVE FOR REDEVELOPMENT OF A TROPICAL CYCLONE. THIS SYSTEM HAS A LOW CHANCE NEAR 0% OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS. 2) A TROPICAL WAVE IS PRODUCING DISORGANIZED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE EASTERN TROPICAL ATLANTIC SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES SOUTHWEST OF THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS. SOME GRADUAL DEVELOPMENT OF THIS DISTURBANCE IS POSSIBLE BEFORE UPPER LEVEL WINDS BECOME UNFAVORABLE AROUND MIDWEEK. THIS SYSTEM HAS A LOW CHANCE, 20%, OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS.
