Erika Could Form Soon

We've been watching a strong tropical wave in the Atlantic for the past couple of days. Latest satellite imagery shows some broad circulation. If this continues to strengthen (which most computer forecasts indicate), then this will become Erika. There is another circulation to the northwest of this wave that we will also watch, but conditions don't look as favorable for development. I will have the very latest during the 11 PM newscast tonight...see you there!
