I have no idea as to whether this will actually become a named storm, but one thing is for sure: this system will not follow Debby's immediate path. The flow right now is much more typical of late August and early recurvature (a la Debby) looks extremely unlikely. Not saying this will cross the entire Atlantic, but this should reach 50W at the very least.

NHC 12Z Analysis CHhart suggests a movement toward the westsouthwest as it emerges from Africa. Note that it intensifies the system during the process from 1009mb to 1008mb.

...TROPICAL WAVES...
A 1007 MB LOW IS JUST WEST OF THE COAST OF SENEGAL NEAR 16N18W
MOVING W NEAR 10 KT. POSITION IS BASED ON SURFACE OBSERVATIONS
AND SATELLITE IMAGERY. SHOWERS AND TSTMS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
LOW HAVE DIMINISHED OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS...THOUGH THIS MAY BE
PARTLY DIURNAL.

Not sure about this one....the models all seem to show this wave TRYING to spin up early next week, but they all lose it once it approaches 50W. I wonder what the models are seeing to make this system fizzle in the long run.

I think that's too far north for a tropical wave to come out. Maybe try "The Cape Verde Islands"!!!
