Tropical Depression #2


The Atlantic basin is looking more active now in terms of possible tropical developments.

There are a few distrurbances over and east of the Leeward Islands but a tropical depression did form overnight west of the Cape Verde Islands. This system is about ten days from any potential interaction with the U.S.

Cape Verde storms are very common this time of year as waves come off of the African Coast traveling westward.
