From the 8 PM Discussion:

A LOW AMPLITUDE TROPICAL WAVE IS JUST SOUTH OF THE CAPE VERDE
ISLANDS ALONG 25W/26W WITH A 1009 MB LOW ALONG THE WAVE AXIS
NEAR 12N MOVING W 10-15 KT. 850 MB SATELLITE DERIVED VORTICITY
AND THE MIMIC-TPW FROM CIMSS ALSO SUPPORT THE WAVE POSITION.
SCATTERED MODERATE CONVECTION IS MAINLY AHEAD OF THE WAVE AND
NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF THE WAVE AND THE ITCZ FROM 8N-10N
BETWEEN 26W-32W. SCATTERED SHOWERS ARE AROUND THE LOW CENTER.

In most cases, when it says invest is because an invest will be declared soon. I have seen it before. Therefore, I didn't say anything outside the lines. If it happens again, I will still say that an invest is coming soon. I have been wrong before and that its not likely to change in the future. But don't hesitate, the invest is coming soon. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

There is a new tropical wave and low south of the Cape Verde Islands that will be monitored over the next few days for possible slow development.

Let's see what happens during the next fex days.... :roll:

"a new tropical wave and low south of the Cape Verde Islands"

It makes it clear that it's this wave.

I was hoping that you will guess better than that :) but i like you joke or your mistake and your sense of humour but the NHC is clear :P believe them :)

it's not the best looking system this year, but it is firing some nice convection tonight now within the central atlantic satellite. YAY no more waiting 6 hours for satellite images.

The map is available before the analysis (discussion). In the previous TWD they had a 1009 mb low associated with this system and now it just shows the wave.

Showers increasing but likely related to the ITCZ.

Sounds weird to have an ULL at 13°N.

Yeah it does sound a little strange but there you go!

Guessing that convection is simply a part of the ITCZ, still don't think this will do anything really.
