are becoming better organized in association with an area of low 
pressure located several hundred miles southwest of the Azores. In 
addition, it appears that a well-defined center is developing. If 
these current trends continue, a tropical depression could form as 
soon as later this afternoon. The system is expected to move slowly 
over the next several days remaining to the southwest of the Azores.
