Tropical Depression Fourteen developed from a distinct
tropical wave which
exited the coast of Africa on 4 September. The system gradually organized and
became a tropical depression
at 1200 UTC 9 September. It was the only tropical depression which formed and did
not reach tropical storm
status in the eastern Atlantic. The depression moved toward the northwest and encountered
strong upper-level winds which removed the convection from the low-level
center.
The best track
positions of tropical Depression Fourteen are shown in
