(Reuters) – A broad low pressure system near the Cape Verde Islands has a 50% chance of developing into a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours, the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC) said on Tuesday.

The system could develop into a tropical depression in a few days while moving westward to west-northwestward at 15 to 20 miles per hour over the eastern and central Atlantic, the Miami-based forecaster said.
