Dry air really needs to decrease for this system to have any chance of significant development.

There is some slight mid level rotation south of the main convective complex.

Don't expect anything with this wave for now, lots of shear ahead and too much dry air. But it looks to be the TW that the models begin hinting at trying to close off near the Bahamas in 4-5 days. Could be a player down the road.

NHC is liking the wave tonight (based on 8pm TWD)...cyclonic turning is becoming more evident around 11.5N/54W...storms are firing to the NW and SE sides of system...models are starting to pickup on future development of this system...dry slot between the system and the Islands is moderating...the system has maintained (albeit in different places) convection for 3 days...there is some history of storms forming in this area in June...all in all, this system seems to have a fair chance of development...either now or down the road..

This wave does have a small LL circulation south of the main blow up this evening near 11n 54w, I just picked it up look at this loop on this site, interesting.

Go to this site, click under "GOES EAST" on the far right box that says vis and IR Floater. Watch the circulation........

Yup, that mid to low level circ is very evident. I saw it earlier on visible and tonight I can still see it on RGB and IR. It may be something to watch in the 5 day range....(like we're not already watching it) :D

We're coming up on 25 pages...should we start a new Atlantic Waves thread and a separate thread for the system near 54W (since it won't be in the Atlantic much longer)?

Regardless of what the wave near the Antilles does,this Atlantic Tropical Waves thread theme will continue all season long as the waves will continue to energe Africa in the comming weeks and months.A separated thread can be made about wave near the Antilles.

Anyone take notice of the latest GFS run? It's trying to develop something off of the east coast of Florida within the next 2-3 days.

That wave near the Cape Versde Islands has a weak Mid-Level Circulation as you can see by the clouds formation but african dust in the Eastern Atlantic is the big enemy to that wave to do anything.
