I think it's still too far east for images every 30 mins.

I agree very much with you WX .. it has potential only if it stays weaker for the next day or so it it ot going now a more northerly turn may happen and with the latest EUMETSAT loops it be moving WNW already here is the LINK And for this of you that have never Seen this site.. here are the instructions The 0° Operational Service is the image you should click for it is the eastern Atlantic and you will notice the full disc is divided up ... if you start in the top left box and go down one that is the sector you want .... click on that and a window will pop up.. and you will see some controls... In the top right of that window it says display click color i find it to be clearer.... than click 9 or 12 images and hit play ... it is the only loop that is not 6 hours apart that i have ever found of the eastern atlantic.. and you can also get a good loop over africa using the other sectors.... oh yeah you can click visible now it works and does not skip as much becuase you get more images that anywhere else. but i suggest the IR 2 ...

Let me know what you think of it... i think it helps out lot... since other loops suck again use IR 2

WOW just read what i wrote and i realized i type too fast .. i made so many mistakes

i meant to say on the first line if it does not stay weak and organizes a little more than it will turn north and it may already be doing so with the latest loops... let me know what you all think of the WNW motion and the Site

That's right. The only reason I could get a full shot of it last hour was that it was 18Z. Once it moves west of about 31W it'll be in the regular northern hemisphere view.

That all depends on how much it develops .. if it stays weak with little vertical development than it will stay more west being steerd by the low to mid level steering flow .. if it organizes more and starts moiving WNW than it MAy turn more NW'erly... the ridge is fairly well in place at the surface and mid level but there is a slight weakness in a day or two as it moves W to WNW .... it all depends on how weak it stays

Aric...I don't see a link in your post. It's like you meant to use the work "LINK" as the link, but it's not there.

Dr. Jeff Masters said that this wave has the potential to develop if it can sustain convection for the next several days. Looks good to me.

Hey Aric, I think the site is great. I like the loop, its great because you get a frame every 3 hours instead of 6. Thanks for the link I will use it again. :D
