Hmm. Favored over 91L by this graphic.
13N/19W: new candidate for Cape Verde development?

I think that graphic indicates more favored development probabilities for this wave/low than 91L is because INVEST 91L is entering a more unfavorable shearing environment (due to an ULL) for the short to middle term. This area, however, is further east and may be in a slightly more favorable moisture and lower shear environment than what 91L is entering.

FINALLY figured out how to do it!
Not bad, CVW. But do you see how I've marked this up? Those are the features that should be lined up to make the overlay accurate and to scale. If you right-click the image under "My places" and edit, you should get a box and the overlay should then have green corners, a green center, and a green diamond for rotating. Play with those to line it up to the geographical features, or turn on the lat/lon grid (under the View menu) to line up the grid on the overlay with.
EDIT: haha, forgot the image:

I'm not sure if this is the same wave that spawned a 1009mb low off the Coast of Africa but, I thought it was worth mentioning as it is a wave with cyclonic turning. Daniel you may want to change the title of the thread.
From Accuwx:
205 TWD
...TROPICAL WAVES...
AN ATLANTIC OCEAN TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 37W SOUTH OF 21N MOVING
WEST 15 KT. LOW CLOUD MOTIONS EXHIBIT CLEAR CYCLONIC CURVATURE
ABOUT THE AXIS WITH A NOTED INVERTED V PATTERN...ESPECIALLY N OF
11N BETWEEN 33W AND 42W. DEEP CONVECTION IN THE VICINITY OF THIS
WAVE HAS REMAINED AT A MINIMUM TODAY. ONLY ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
TSTMS EVIDENT WITHIN 250NM OF EITHER SIDE OF THE AXIS...AND
THOSE ARE MAINLY IN THE VICINITY OF THE ITCZ.
Will have the 530 shortly if it is mentioned.
From Accuwx:
One other tropical wave is present in the eastern Atlantic along 35 west, south of 17 north, just west of the Cape Verde Islands. There is a broad area of turning evident in satellite imagery around this wave, but no thunderstorm activity is associated with this wave.
