Yep, The Azores High has moved west and Low pressure is over the Azores along with NW Africa.. So I do expect it to have moved further north over western Africa as well before this dekadal is over. It is still getting pushed southward further west but overall it has come north a tad. This is all about normal as far as Hurricane season is concerned. The SSTs out east in the MDR should be warming northward as well..

Well they did reposition the wave in the area and it is a large area of convection..but SSt's are limited there and it's early for that area.. Maybe later down the road if it makes it to the Carribean imo.. Nothing imeadiate..
