Re: Wave Off African Coast
Amazing to me how the models are sensing this entire region to be unfavorable this deep into the heart of the season.
Not to say that we won't get in close development, just ... very strange.

Re: Wave Off African Coast
That's a VERY impressive wave.
Is this the one the Euro was showing with immediate development as it rolled off the African coast? Not that I buy that solution, since the Euro has often cried wolf on immediate development of these waves only for it to back down once the wave splashes down.

Irene '99, Katrina '05, Wilma '05, Irma '17 (storms I remember my area getting hurricane force winds/gusts).

Actually, the one that the Euro is calling for immediate development is not until the wave that rolls off late this upcoming weekend.
The Euro (as well as GFS and UK) do absolutely nothing with this current wave, as impressive as it may look.

A tropical wave extends from 12N27W to 22N24W moving W around 10
kt. A weak 1010 mb low is analyzed along the wave axis near
17N26W. The wave coincides with amplified 700 mb troughing.
Infrared satellite imagery shows the presence of Saharan dust
flanking the north side of the wave. Scattered moderate and
isolated strong convection is found from 11N to 14N between 28W
and 31W.
