Satellite images indicate that the area of low pressure centered about 935 miles east of the northern Leeward Islands is better organized this morning and has the potential to become a tropical depression later today or Saturday. However...upper-level winds are not favorable for significant development. The low is forecast to move toward the west about 15 mph.

Always something is wrong for development... hopefully the upper-level winds will become more favorable soon!

I think that perfect conditions for development are something that happens once every year.
