Re: New Tropical Wave near Africa
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.

Invest soon, stay tuned!
an invest soon, huh?
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.

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....

"a new tropical wave and low south of the Cape Verde Islands"
It makes it clear that it's this wave.

Showers increasing but likely related to the ITCZ.
