A swiftly moving tropical depression packed with thunderstorms was heading toward the eastern Caribbean island of Guadeloupe as two other tropical systems over open waters showed little sign of development. The National Hurricane Center in Miami said that by evening the center of the depression was about 325 miles east of Guadeloupe with winds of 35 m.p.h., gusting higher in squalls. The remaining two depressions, one about 175 miles southeast of Jamaica in the Caribbean, and the other about 200 miles northwest of the Cape Verde Islands off West Africa, posed little immediate threat to land, forecasters said.
