The Sleeper down in latitud east of Southern Windwards?

I am not talking about 91L east of Florence,but about a disturbance way down in latitud SE of the Cape Verde Islands as the image I posted shows.The quickScat shows a weak turning down there in the barbs.Will this one down the road develop as its far from Florence and 91L?

Funny enough some of the models were developing a system right near that area and brining it north extremely quickly.. MM5,CMC and GFS show this .. but it shows it in about 48 hours time... Meanwhile the Nogaps developes something a bit futher west which could be this ?

Looks pretty impressive and similar to 91L when it came off the coast a few days ago, though it does have less convection then 91L did. If this is still spinning out there with some convection tomorrow, then I think we'll have another system to watch.

Rock,here is the link to a thread from months ago that explains how to do hyperlink texts.

Type [url=

Then insert the complete link as above

Then type a close bracket ( this: ] )

Then type in a descriptive (or wise-ass) name, such as, in this case: Eumetsat close-up

Then type in an open bracket and the closed url code, followed by a close bracket: [/url]

No spaces required, although the above seems to ignore spaces and work anyway.

Your link would then look like this:

Eumetsat close-up

Ok,after the instructions haved been posted to Rock,let's return to the theme of the thread and discuss about a posible sleeper down the road developing at lower latitud than Florence and 91L.

Luis, perhaps you should change the thread title to reflect the subject better so others understand that this thread is referring to a weak tropical wave that just exited the African coastline at around 8N and 22W.

CVW,for sure I will change the title of the thread as soon NHC introduces the system as a wave. :)

I know, Luis, but the title of "sleeper down in latitude" is not too descriptive and might not get attention since others may not know what it's referring to. Perhaps you can now change the title so that it refers to this low-latitude system near 8N and 22W just off Africa. It would be more descriptive.

Added a reference of the location to the title.

No mention at the 8 PM discussion about this area.That is why I call it a sleeper as it may surprise many if it develops that far south in latitud.In horseracing this can be a 15/1 longshot sleeper. :)

It's a fair-sized system, right out of the gate:

Hmmm . . . does anyone else see the little "L" in the rainbow IR around 5-7N and 23W? Maybe a sign of things to come? :lol:

Yea i posted something earlier about this wave. It looks like this will become another invest and being a low latitude tracker could make this one more interesting than the other 2 systems if this becomes a depression. It seems to have a better environment and being separated from the other 2 systems is a big + as well.

It will be interesting to see if it develops. It seems to be at an unusually low latitude however. I wonder if that will hinder an opportunity for development.

Anybody know what low-flyers like this usually do?
