A low pressure system formed from a tropical wave about 665 miles (1075 km) west of the southwesternmost Cape Verde Islands and developed into a tropical depression on September 30. The depression moved to the northwest, reaching a peak strength of 35 mph (55 km/h) and minimum central pressure of 1,006 mbar (29.7 inHg) on October 1. It experienced strong shear, began to dissipate, and the NHC discontinued advisories the next day. Nineteen dissipated without strengthening to a tropical storm and never threatened any land, so no warnings or watches were issued.
