E ATLC TROPICAL WAVE REPOSITIONED ALONG 27W/28W S OF 14N MOVING
W 15 KT. THIS WAVE HAS GOTTEN SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER-DEFINED
DURING THE PAST 24 HOURS WITH A LARGE AREA OF CONVECTION ON THE
N AND E SIDE. THERE IS EVEN SOME EVIDENCE OF A BROAD LOW
FORMING NEAR 10N. SOME INCREASE IN ORGANIZATION SEEMS POSSIBLE
WITH UPPER-LEVEL WINDS NOT ALL THAT UNFAVORABLE... THOUGH IT IS
GETTING LATE TO HAVE SOMETHING FORM IN THE E TROPICAL ATLC.
WIDELY SCATTERED MODERATE CONVECTION FROM 6N-14N BETWEEN
24W-31W.


Interesting 2 PM Discussion about this wave.

The way this season has gone it wouldn't surprise me at all to see a late cape verde storm. Climatology went out the window this year why should it stop now.

People keep saying that "climatology went out the window." That is not accurate--it has been a very active hurricane season, much as 1995. In addition, the landfalls were not in areas that landfalling storms have avoided--basically they were frequently hit areas. The only thing unusual was the number and intensity of storms--if one looks back in history, several years stand out as very active.

The system is starting to look better somewhat on visible imagery as well...

Actually... that would be a fairly accurate statement: this season hasn't followed climatology very well. Right, the landfalling areas, for the most part, weren't unusual, but the season as a whole has not followed climatology.

Saying that "this season isn't following climatology" would be an inaccurate statement is like saying a Lance Armstrong is an average cyclist.

You can take that one up with the NHC; they said it first way back in July.

I just realized people said that there was no cape verde hurricane, but wasn't Irene a cape verde hurricane. I think most storms were actually from the cape verdes but didn't develop until they got closer in. We did have cape verde hurricanes people. Sure we didn't have a hurricane right by the cape verde islands but many storms originated from the Cape Verde region.

No, this year has been completely anti-climatology. 5 July storms the two strongest July storms of all time back to back. The fact that nearly every storm have been multiple days ahead of schedule. A 902mb Cat 5 in the Gulf of Mexico. A second "full-fledged" Cat 5 (unlike the questionable or low end ones in 1960/1961)... and also in the gulf.

No Cape Verde storms. Vince. Way too many gulf storms. 4 intense gulf hurricanes (beating the record by 2). Definitely went out the window here.

Irene wasn't a Cape Verde storm, it was a storm from a wave, but it wasn't a real long tracker. Almost year has a few long trackers to watch and a year as active as this ought to have a few... many cape verde storms end up as Cat 4... examples of the classics are:

2004: Karl, Ivan, Frances
2003: Isabel, Fabian
2002 was an El Nino year
2001 Felix
2000 Alberto, Isaac, Joyce
1999 Cindy, Floyd, Gert

Etc. All these storms were big Cat 4 or Cat 3s while 2005 just hasn't had something like that. All formed into tropical storms near the Cape.
