Re: Wave in Eastern Atlantic
Could be a weak low at 10N 37W, with the new convection over that spot.

I am set on just one or two more systems all year, with potentially catastrophic impacts. Look, for all the arguing about Dean making cooler water in the Caribbean, etc, absolutely NOTHING has tapped the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic Gulf Stream. I went swimming in the 90+F water off the AL gulf coast last weekend. It's ripe to be tapped.
Look, this year is obviously not going to see 28 named storms, no way. But whatever does get going is going to be insane. Look at Dean. 165mph? That's incredible. Look at the heat content! You better hope nothing enters the gulf next week because that protective high pressure cell is going away. If we get anything TS or better entering the gulf, there is no way out and it's going to be lights-out for somebody big time.
The best course of action is to wait the 24-hours required for EVERYTHING to change in the tropics and watch everything closely.
Come back tomorrow night and it'll look totally different.

Re: Wave in Eastern Atlantic
If it was not for the dean this season would have less then 3 points of ACE. This season was on track to be one of the saddest in the last 150 years based on ACE and overall strength. It would not at all suprize me if september has less then 3 named storms with only one becomng hurricane. The dry air layer is amazing over the tropical atlatnic. Mind blowing on the differences between seasons.

Re: Wave in Eastern Atlantic
What I mean by dry air is that there is a stable layer, dry air is normally very stable. Also a strong azores high is setting it up. Just look at the south Atlantic to see what this can do to tropical cyclones.

00z EURO liking this system. (I think it's this area that it's developing,hard to tell since other models also develop something behind it later on)

00z CMC
TWO : 5:30 AM
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LOCATED ABOUT 1000 MILES WEST-SOUTHWEST OF
THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH A TROPICAL WAVE.
DEVELOPMENT...IF ANY...IS EXPECTED TO BE SLOW TO OCCUR AS THIS
SYSTEM MOVES WESTWARD AT 15 TO 20 MPH

Re: Wave in Eastern Atlantic
Low level circulation is still evident in the early morning visibles. Must still be a surface low near 41w.
Track would appear to be W or WNW south of a ridge all the way to 80W. There is talk of a front in the NE gulf this weekend so this is going to get interesting. The ridge may build a little stronger than expected causing the front to retreat or the front may dig.
Unless the front digs into a savior trough for Florida this is looking like a gulf storm.

Re: Wave in Eastern Atlantic
It's now invest 94L. Not much to look at, but it may have a chance to develop. Interesting that the first BAM models run it into South America.
