The central Bahamas, including Cat Island, the Exumas, Long Island, Rum Cay, and San Salvador.

other area of disturbance is a tropical wave located about 1000 miles
west-southwest of the Cape Verde Islands that is producing disorganized
showers and thunderstorms. Conditions do not appear to be favorable for
development during the next few days, but could become more conducive
by the end of the week while the system moves westward to
west-northwestward at about 15 mph.
This system has a low chance (20%)
of becoming a tropical cyclone within the next five days. If this
tropical wave develops into a tropical storm or hurricane, the next name
