Since the NHC has highlighted this wave off of the coast of Africa I thought I would go ahead and initiate a new thread on this potential threat. If you believe some of the computer models this area should eventually become Tropical Depression Number 3 and something potentially much more serious down the road.

IT MOVES TO THE WEST AT 10 TO 15 MPH. THERE IS A LOW CHANCE... LESS
