...TROPICAL WAVES...

A CARIBBEAN SEA TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 16571W ACROSS THE GUAJIRA
PENINSULA IN NE COLOMBIA INTO WESTERN VENEZUELA NEAR LAKE
MARACAIBO. WIND DATA FROM BUOY AND LAND BASED OBSERVATIONS
INDICATE THE WAVE IS VERY BROAD...BUT STACKS WELL WITH CYCLONIC
TURNING NOTED IN LOW LEVEL SATELLITE DERIVED WIND DISPLAYS.
CONVECTION REMAINS MINIMAL DESPITE DECENT PRECIPITABLE WATER
VALUES IN THE S CENTRAL CARIBBEAN NOTED ON SATELLITE AND
REGIONAL SOUNDING DATA. THE MAIN IMPACT OF THE WAVE SO FAR ON
SENSIBLE WEATHER IS TO ENHANCE TRADE WIND FLOW SLIGHTLY...AS FAR
N AS THE N SIDE OF HISPANIOLA WHERE 20 KT WINDS ARE NOTED IN
SHIP AND SCATTEROMETER DATA. CONVECTION WILL LIKELY INCREASE
SLIGHTLY AS THE WAVE SHIFTS WESTWARD INTO THE SW CARIBBEAN
THROUGH MON...AND INTERACTS WITH A QUASI-STATIONARY UPPER TROUGH
EXTENDING OVER THE NW CARIBBEAN. THE WAVE WILL LOSE ITS DISTINCT
IDENTITY THROUGH SUN AS IT INTERACTS WITH THE UPPER TROUGH...AND
STALLS OVER THE FAR SW CARIBBEAN.

Nice looking wave at 10N/35W for this time of year. Getting that inverted V look. Even a sign of some broad turning.

Anyone know why that area near 30W isn't a wave? Sure looks like on on TPW.
