Re: When will the first tropical wave be introduced?
It seems unlikely we will see TAFB officially mark a tropical wave in April, I have never seen them do that before May. However, the Tropical Cyclone Report for Hurricane Alma 1990 in the Eastern Pacific says it developed from a tropical wave that exited the coast of Africa on April 29th.

The April 21-30 timeframe has passed and now May 1-10 is in the running.

Looks like May 1-10 will pass without an entrant as well. Slower-than-expected start to the season.

I'm thinking we'll see our first analyzed tropical wave either today or this weekend south of Cabo Verde. A pouch of moisture associated with this disturbance will be pushing offshore today, and models are in good agreement that it'll be accompanied by the usual wavy wind pattern associated with tropical waves. It is currently modeled to reach the Lesser Antilles or northern South America either late next week or next weekend.

They did not pulled the trigger during the weekend. I thought, that area SSE of CV was going to be the one.

Re: When will the first tropical wave be introduced?
NHC TAFB has a standard criteria for identifying waves. If I remember correctly they use the advection of curvature vorticity to objectively analyze 700mb trough axes in data from EC/GFS to identify tropical waves.
