Tropical Wave between CV islands and Lesser Antilles

#1 Postby Hurricaneman » Sun Aug 17, 2014 11:06 pm

it seems to be the area to watch and maybe the NHC will add that to their outlook in the next day or 2 also it seems to have the best conditions of the 3 areas

Not sure if it is connected to anything at the surface or just an ITCZ flare up.

the GFS does something of a weak low with it at some point then totally dissipates it

Take your pick. More seriously, central and east Atlantic are like a twilight zone for the models.

the thing is it seems to be staying its own entity, as for the 2day 10% and 5day 30% if I were in the NHCs shoes I would move it to this area as this area seems to be absorbing pouch 017L

:uarrow: That graphic was the 06Z analysis. As I posted at the Tropical Wave east of Lesser Antilles thread the 12z graphic the red low (Ex95L) will dissipate leaving only one .

I think we are watching the slow motion build up of more moisture in the formation zone until climatological forcing overcomes the dry air mass and forms a system.

This area is mentioned.

An area of disturbed weather over the central tropical Atlantic
Ocean about midway between Africa and the Lesser Antilles is
associated with a tropical wave. Any development of this system is
expected to be slow to occur over the next several days while it
moves to the west-northwest at about 10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

A tropical wave located about midway between the west coast of
Africa and the Lesser Antilles is producing disorganized showers
and thunderstorms. Some slow development of this system is possible
over the next several days while it moves toward the west-northwest
at about 10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

Both area's now have some fair convection and they look closer together. There might be a merger in the works 8-)

And now there appears to be yet another player emerging (just southwest of the Cape Verdes).

I believe Panama mentioned a merger may occur.. This may be the case.
It may take a day or 2, but would not be surprised if this happens.

As far as track, it's way to early to speculate until we get a true center.

WSI on twitter..Overnight numerical model guidance has trended much more aggressive with developing a western MDR tropical cyclone.

Looks how much the SAL has broken up in the area east of the Leewards...looks more favorable than a month ago when Bertha was tracking through the area.

The eastern Caribbean is also moistening up.
