If this persists for the next 12 hours,I will not be surprised if it gets invest status.Finnally,I can lock the thread if that happens. :)

If it not gets invest status,it will die down the pages as soon is not anymore in the charts. :)

Sidebar=At title,I took out the word wave and put disturbance.

The moisture envelope surrounding the disturbance is quite moist as well. SAL is more north and is not greatly impacting this system. Shear is light out of the east...

If the convection persists tonight, gentlemen's bet the NHC places the Yellow polygon around the convection ball tomorrow! :D

Yeah, right Gatorcane and look at the ITCZ ahead...bringing with my untrained eyes another moist support for this thing to pop. This strong wave continues to exhibit a very nice sat appareance. A window of opportunity is maybe trying to open, let's wait and see the 12 next hours.

Large thunderstorm complex in the MDR in August. Definately worthy of inspection on these facts alone.

--Well convection has grown all day, which should lower pressure. Interesting to say the least which some model support. In any case, something to watch :D

Definate cyclonic turning as of 10:45pm on the GOES imagery :eek: But at what levels who knows. Definately not surface. just looks pretty healthy as of right now. Think we get a yellow box tommorrow

It may end up as a poofer, but looking at the wide view IR loop, talk about great satellite presentation.

Yup most of the models show either poofation or fishing. Nothing conculsive. I think tommorrow at sunrise we will have a better idea. its still really far out but Cape Verde season has started. Its looks like typical Cape Verde Cyclogenesis but dunno. let the promets opine while i lurk

We've been burned time and time again by pretty balls of convection. Derek says this isn't likely to develop and he should know. Just cause it's pretty doesn't mean it will develop into a tropical cyclone. Unless Derek is interested in it, why should we think otherwise?

Surface trough has been added to this feature at the 00:00 UTC surface analysis chart.

If we are going to talk about it please call it "the trough" and not "the wave" :wink:

Today = 8/3. WxMan57 predicts Anna on 8/5. This represents the best chance of Anna in the next 2 days. Since WxMan must be right, then this is 48 hours from a storm (just working the logic angle here).

Finally something to watch.

That is, other than the Canadian at 144 hours. :lol:
