1. A tropical wave near 26-25 degrees west is not showing signs of organization at this time.

2. A tropical wave near 48-47 degrees west is passing through  a westerly shear environment.  There are no sign of organization at this time.

4.  A tropical wave near 96-95 degrees west is also not showing signs of organization at this time.  This wave over Mexico and a portion of the Bay of Capache will be moving out of the area.  This will be the last update on this wave.

Troughs:

A trough near 68-67 degrees west is no longer Interacting with trough north of the Eastern Bahamas.

The trough near the Bahamas seems to be producing showers and storms to the east of the axis. 

Area being watched by RTW:

I am monitoring an area east of the northeast Leeward extending northwestward to several 100 miles north of Puerto Rico.  Although nothing is showing right now some models are hinting at low pressure developing in the region in the week to come.
