Wave in East Atlantic

#1 Postby Anthonyl » Fri Sep 28, 2007 5:09 pm

A few of the computer modles seem to want to develop the complex of showers(associated with a tropical wave) over the next couple of days as it traverses the Atlantic. It would be interesting to see how this pans out as conditions are expected to improve accross the basin with a stronger high pressure ridge expected to retrograde from the US coast to the Norther Atlantic.

The shear to the north should prevent any development IMO. Cape Verde is done I think.

they should be favorable enough to at least get a TS out of this

this would be a big model bust if this does not form

This has about 48-60 hours before it runs into the super tutt. So maybe a chance for some development. As for TD 14 it will have to recurve with the shear to have any chance at a name. Derek do you agree or disagree?

14N ESTIMATED TO BE MOVING W 10-15 KT. THIS WAVE IS LOWER
AMPLITUDE THAT MANY OF PREVIOUS ONES THIS MONTH. THERE ARE
SEVERAL DATA SOURCES SUPPORTING THE EXISTENCE OF THIS NEW WAVE.
THE MIMIC TPW ANIMATION SHOWS A MODEST BULGE OF MOISTENED AIR
OFF THE AFRICAN COAST. SATELLITE IMAGERY AND DERIVED WINDS SHOW
A BROAD AREA OF TURNING WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND TSTMS
POSSIBLE WITHIN 180 NM OF THE AXIS. IN ADDITION...SOUNDING DATA
FROM DAKAR SHOWS THE 600-800 MB FLOW VEERING TO THE SE AND
