A tropical wave is anticipated to emerge off the coast of Africa this Friday, as reported by the US National Hurricane Center (NHC). The meteorological system is projected to interact with another atmospheric disturbance over the eastern tropical Atlantic, subsequently progressing westward. Environmental conditions are expected to favor the gradual development of this system over the coming days. By the end of next week, there is a possibility that the wave could evolve into a tropical depression, potentially forming near or east of the Lesser Antilles. The NHC continues to monitor the situation closely, urging residents in the region to stay informed about potential weather developments.
