ORLANDO, Fla. — A tropical wave is expected to emerge off the coast of Africa this weekend.
Conditions in the eastern Atlantic are favorable for development into a tropical system next week.
Meteorologists are closely monitoring the eastern Atlantic, where a new tropical wave is set to emerge.
The environment in this region is conducive to the slow development of a tropical system, which could potentially impact weather patterns as it evolves.
In addition to the emerging tropical wave, Fernand has transitioned to a post-tropical state and is expected to weaken further throughout the weekend.
