I'm gonna tell you right now that i think that the northern half of this wave will develop, because the lower half looks like its being sucked into the ITCZ.

The wave Meso thinks will develop looks real close to the wave we're talking about. do you think that wave will get absorbed by the wave currently coming off the coast.

That's what some of the models showed,they show the wave you're talking about moving off,and then after a few days the following wave merging and the developing,or so it looked on the GFS runs.

I would have to say saturday too cause thats when i think it will make it to the 5kt shear and would start to get better organize, but of course if it don't start looking better on saturday i would bump monday.

The key will be too see how far into the Atlantic this system can get. If the convection poofs away at 30W then it probably won't do anything much but I've noticed that both the waves with Felix and Dean had popping further west then the other waves that have died away so far this season.

yeah agree with you i tkink the same thing, but given the peak and the current conditions if this trend continues day afteer day saturday seems quite reasonable...why not after all?, time will tell but this feature doesn't seem deceiving my untrained eyes lool

Before i truly go Kookoo over this wave i wanna see if its actually building convection or if it can sustain it for a couple of hours, but until it does either of those things i'll be a little iffy on this.

Oh man i shiny like the top of any of our 2ker's bald heads :ggreen:
