Wave getting organized

The tropical wave we last spoke of appears to be getting better organized.

In its latest update, the National Weather Service gives it a greater than 50 percent chance of developing into a tropical depression during the next 48 hours.

A reconnaissance plane is slated to investigate the storm this afternoon.

Although its way too early to speculate where it might go, computer models put this storm on a path similar to Hurricane Bill.
