UPDATE 10/16/19 5AM
Tropical depression 15 is no longer as it dissippates just north of the Cabo Verde Islands. At one point it appeared it would strengthen into a tropical storm, but wind shear and cooler water temperatures prevented this from happening. This will be the last update on what was Tropical depression 15.

FIRST UPDATE 10/14/19 5PM
Tropical Depression 15 has formed in the far east Atlantic near the Cabo Verde Is. The system is moving NW and will likely become Tropical Storm Nestor soon. There is no eventual threat to the U.S. In fact, the storm will likely dissipate by later this week.
