Its a biggie for sure, I'm guessing it'll probably serve as something of a catalyst for possibly getting something going out of that large ITCZ mass that has sat there for a while.

Re: Wave off African coast
If 93L develops, it may cause this wave to ride west as high pressure forms behind 93L.

The one behind that huge area of convective mess looks like Danielle to me....nice rotation....nice cdo already....this is just my opinion, and is not, in any way, official NHC speak

Re: Wave off African coast
IMHO there's an outside chance that we could get Danielle and Earl out of 93L and this system. Would say better than even odds that we get Danielle out of either 93L or this.
Cycloneye, you suggested that if 93L develops it could cause high pressure to push this wave more west, as opposed to wnw or nw? Why would this be the case? Do ridges usually build in following cyclones that curve north?

Re: Wave off African coast
I don't think both systems develop ... 2nd wave looks more impressive this evening. 93L very disorganized. Does the future Danielle go fishing with Colin or stay more west? I'm not sure. Perhaps if it develops quickly, more likely for recurvature?

Elsewhere In The Tropical Atlantic:
There is still plenty more to talk about this morning, so go grab that second cup of coffee, I know I am before I continue writing.
There is another system to mention that has just moved off of the coast of Africa and is located near 25 West Longitude or due south of the Cape Verde Islands. I see no reasons why this system will not develop. The only thing that may this particular system from developing is if it gets too close to Invest 93-L/Danielle. So, this system will also be closely monitored over the coming days.
If this isn’t enough for you, another tropical disturbance now located over west-central Africa near 5 East Longitude will track into the eastern Atlantic early next week and may also be a candidate for development later next week.

Have you looked at the sat loop in the post before yours?ConvergenceZone wrote:The once robust convection in the Atlantic 2 days ago, seems to have all but faded. Just when I thought the switch was ready to turn on...It pulls a head fake and once again, not much to talk about....

Re: Wave off African coast
Yes, that's what I looked at. 2 days ago there was an insane amount of convection, much much more than compared to now.
