quick look at the Tropical Atlantic

#1 Postby wxwatcher91 » Fri Jul 08, 2005 9:04 pm

with all the excitement about Dennis action elsewhere is forgotten... not that there really is much for action elsewhere... but there might be some later...
here is the 8pm TWD (just the tropical waves section)

...Tropical waves...
tropical wave is near the CAPE Verde Islands along 26w S of 18n
moving W 10-15 kt. There is a 1013 mb low along the wave near
12n. The E atlc has a complicated structure right now with
another 1013 mb low further W near 11n35w. These systems
appears to be slowly moving westward and it is difficult to
determine if they are both associated with tropical waves. A
few tstms are being generated by the lows though the western one
is about to enter much drier air aloft.

Central atlc tropical wave is along 42w moving W 10-15 kt.
Wave can be seen in the stratocumulus field though its cloud
signature is fading. No significant convection is noted.

W-central Atlantic tropical wave is along 59w S of 16n moving
west 10-15 kt. Isolated moderate convection is over the
Windward Islands from 11n-15n between 55w-62w. Increased levels
of moisture are likely for tomorrow over the Windward Islands
with significant drying by late Sat.
