This system is very powerful. It has a very impressive LLC and it has thunderstorms associated with it. In fact, latest satellite images indicate a tropical depression may be forming near 10N 20W.
This system will definitely be watched as atmospheric conditions are very favorable to develop into a tropical depression or tropical storm over the next few days. It might even have a potential impact on the islands down the road with the current steering pattern.
Everyone stay tuned as we just entered the most active time of the year...
While Frances churns, a POWERFUL wave just emerged Africa...
