Invest 94L—30% 2 day and 50% seven day odds of development

[WxWatcher007]

Now that the follow up wave in the Tropical Atlantic has been designated as Invest 94L and has a decent chance of development, I'm breaking out discussion into a new thread. 

Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL94):
A tropical wave located a few hundred miles south-southwest of the 
Cabo Verde Islands is producing disorganized showers and 
thunderstorms. Environmental conditions are forecast to be generally 
conducive for gradual development, and a tropical depression could 
form late this week or this weekend while the wave moves westward or 
west-northwestward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.
