Watch the southern curved convection. It will carry energy into the center if it gets going. Felix had a similar band of southern curved convection when it was still unknown.

Hmmmm. Look what's happening to the wave at 9N 37W. Does the same fate await this wave?

GFS once again develops both lows and once again decays the first in favor of the second.
I actually think the first system is more likely to form as the second system is much more likely to injest some of the drier air to its N/NE if it tries to develop and the second one should protect the wave coming off Africa now from any dry air.

Looks like most of it is getting locked up in the ITCZ. Yes we have to watch the northern part near 12-14 north...But development should be very slow, with the dry air.

Dry air!Youve got to be kidding this is in a very moist environment with the SAL almost complete gone from this area.

Atleast some agrees with me that we'll have to watch the northern half of this wave. any ways matt show this dry air this wave has to deal with?
i saw the loops and didn't see dry air.

I'm talking about mid level dry air/stable air which has caped most of the Atlatic. Also eastly shear on the base of the subtropical high. I don't see it devleoping in the next 24-36 hours,,,worth watching. But I would not put any stock in the GFS after 99L.

Looking like a fish.I`m wondering,this thread's been hijacked from the original wave I meant :P Wondering if there shouldn't be 2 threads.One for the one currently exiting africa and the one the models are picking up on :) Oh well,if the first one poofs I guess we could just use this thread for the second one,but if they both hold up they should probably be given each a seperate thread

As I said to Derek Matt 99L and this wave are two rather different set-ups, this one from Africa should have some decent data going into the models while 99L is spinning in an area where data will be sparse.

Easterly shear really probably isn't all that strong as the subtropical high isn't all that strong right now and located further west of this wave:

However there may be an increase as that high drifts eastwards and strengthens which may be why GFS kills off the first closed low.

Meso,I am becoming into doubt that this is the wave the models develop,as I now see that the wave behind is not too far from the coast.Lets see what happens with both of these waves to see which one develops,or both,one and the other no, or none.
