With all the attention focused on Fay just wanted to give a heads up: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/eumet/eatl/wv-l.jpg

Nice big ULL and trough to the northwest of it. So expect maybe another 12 hours of favorable upper levels, followed by less favorable. Looks good but Fay looked good east of PR to.

As if this moment shear and SAL look to be pretty favorable. This system also has good shape with it. In it is within the prime of the cape verde season now. I think it is time to start turning some of our interest to here.

I'd imagine there is some shear to the NW of this wave, it looks ok right now but I doub tthis does anything till its much further west.

looks good right now it looks like there is somthing noth west of the larger area of convection
