The tropical wave moving west from the African coast into the Atlantic Ocean now has a 40% chance of becoming a storm in the next seven days.

The National Hurricane Center said Invest 95L now has a medium chance of formation over the next week.

Weather models are in better agreement that the wave may enter the middle of the Caribbean Sea by that time.

If the tropical wave organizes into a storm, it will most likely be named Emily.
