Behind Josephine...wave emerging

The Grand Tropical Parade looks like it will continue. A new wave is currently emerging from western Africa and should be over water very soon. Located at about 10N/14W.

Yep. Could this be yet another cyclone in the making? That would really be something, eh? :eek:

Considering that the second half of the hurricane season is usually more active than the first, we might well be looking at 22+ named storms this year!

That is one very nice-looking wave, and it's even further south than Josephine.

We could easily have 4 tropical storms at once if this encounters as favorable of conditions as Josephine did.
