Live tracking map, satellite images and forecasts of Invest 98L in the central Atlantic Ocean. High chance of development. Current wind speed 35mph.
Eastern and Central Tropical Atlantic: Showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure located several hundred miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands continue to show signs of organization. Recent satellite imagery suggests the system does not yet have a well-defined surface circulation.
However, environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for further development. A tropical depression is expected to form later today or tomorrow while the disturbance moves generally westward to west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph. The system is then forecast to slow down and turn northward late Friday and Saturday.
