Possible MLC visible in the loops and convection should increase by tomorrow morning. Something to keep an eye on!

Poof the magic dragon lives near the CV islands. Since Bertha formed all the disturbances coming off Africa, despite looking like they would spin have poofed. With the recent demise of convection, looks like this one is on the poof train.....MGC

Worth watching over the next few days. It might develop. It might not. I think Bertha skewed a lot of peoples expectations of tropical waves. However, it is August now and anything can happen.

Its pretty far south so if it does not have an encounter with a mid atlantic TUTT it looks like this might be trouble. Plenty of moisture.

Since Bertha most good disturbances, 97L and 98L, have left Africa at a very high latitude, making the possibility for development very low. This one is pretty far south and althought environmental conditions are not entirely favorable, it's too early to say poof.

Not likely. The NHC not even indicates a wave at the moment.

IF this develops... IF ... then what are the chances of it recurving out to sea or shooting into the Caribbean??

The old adage looks true here. If it develops quickly, it will be steered more by the middle and upper levels which would induce a move northerly movement. If it can stay weak (open wave/td), it would move more west.

Right now the weakness is near 40 to 50W.
