Vigorous Wave to Emerge Africa

[Steve]

Yes, that is the one I was referring to entering Mali. What is also interesting to note is that some of the wave series appear to be coming in 2's.

I was once told that if you believe the EURO models then you need to go:

[cycloneye]

I always give the waves 3 days after they emerge West Africa to see how they evolve.But it will be very interesting to see when that biggie emerges,how it does.The important thing is what kind of enviroment it gets once it splashes into the water.

I believe this says it all...once it hits the water....it will die...to much dry air to the north even though there is moist air to the south...this is not looking good at all....seems as though the Azores High will NOT let go...

Look at that monster wave over Burkina Faso, Africa .

[skysummit]

Well sure they are Brent....they're still waves!

[Ptarmigan]

That only shows dry air north of 20. This wave is well below that.

Very impressive indeed....But conditions this time around i think will be more favorable for this wave to go ahead and develope some.

Hopefully it does it sooner and will only be a worry for the fishes.

[Aquawind]

Hmm that cluster almost qualifies as a Godzilla Wave.. Careful from drooling all over their keyboard..lol

[El Nino]

This is THE One. Come on Dean, make it as a cat5 fish !

[Derek Ortt]

I wouldn't be sad that nothing is developing. Enjoy this time and thank your lucky stars that conditions are so hostile for development.

Trsu me as one who has been through a few of these... you would not wish ANY hurricane on your worst enemy... especially a major hurricane (Katrina and Wilma were more than enlightening in that respect)

[Eyewall]

i can safely say that this is wave is by far the most intense and most organized i have ever seen... looks like a 60kt TS over land..

[Weatherfreak14]

This wave is huge, if it develops i hope it develops fast and becomes a fish, at least something to track and maybe bring some surf to the east coast.

cooler water temps and strong ridging will keep this tracking west. not to mention negative mjo.

Too much dry air

[Sanibel]

A sharp observer will see that the lower half of the ITCZ on the equator side is moistening up as the season gets closer to prime time.

Perhaps any day now...
