Eastern Atlantic Tropical Summary - EATS OUT on August 2, 2005

<img src="http://www.diamondheadweather.com/eats20050802.jpg">

Obviously, the story for the Eastern Atlantic continues to be extremely dry
air and Saharan dust. This has effectively put a lid on tropical development
in a large portion of the Atlantic basin.

Two tropical waves are moving westward across the Atlantic, with no
development expected from either.

A large upper level low persists well to the northwest of the Cape Verde islands.

I do not expect tropical development in the eastern Atlantic in the next
two to three days.

Looks like we will continue to get a good nights rest at least for now!

I hate dry air (SAL)

those folks in the islands and along our coasts have the SAL to thank for the recent lull.
