Tropical Wave Moving West Off Africa

Since the intial burst of tropical activity in late May into early June, the Atlantic tropics have been silent which is usually what happens. Now as we come to the end of July we are beginning to see activity picking up We see a tropical wave moving west off Africa off the visible satellite loop. It is a well defined system and will be completely offshore in the next 24 hours. There are several other tropical waves behind it and they will start churning their way across the Atlantic over the next several weeks.

The National Hurricane Center rates this a 40 percent probability of developing into a tropical cyclone. The upper air pattern going forward over the next several days appears favorable for development. When we look at the upper air winds across the Eastern Atlantic, they show very light wind shear conditions. Light winds aloft are favorable for tropical systems to develop.

The map shows the disturbance as well defined under a light area of wind shear and an upper air high pressure area which helps tropical storms develop from the bottom up. Beyond this time frame models don’t seem to handle tropical systems all that well so it is hard to get a feel for what if anything comes of this. We will watch it as it progresses westward.

Back home we have one more day of 90 degree temperatures before a soaking rain (hopefully) settles in for late Thursday night and Friday. Here is the latest video on that possibility.
