A tropical wave is in the central Atlantic extending from 08N to
17N with axis near 50W moving W at 20 kt over the past 24 hours. The
wave is in a region of unfavorable deep layer wind shear and dry
air is in the N-NW wave environment according to CIRA LPW imagery
from the surface to 850 mb as well as water vapor imagery.
However, abundant shallow moisture in the remainder wave
environment along with a diffluent flow in both the middle and
upper levels support scattered heavy showers from 09N to 14N
between 47W and 53W.

We've been getting some showers, accompanied by somewhat gusty winds, from this wave since late afternoon. And there have been a few distant flashes of lightning during the past 45 minutes or so.

Thanks for that report my friend Abajan.

The wave coincides with 700 mb troughing between 58W-66W and
abundant low-level moisture as noted on Total Precipitable Water
imagery. Scattered moderate convection is from 11N-16N between
58W-61W. Scattered moderate and isolated strong convection is
from 05N-11N between 61W-65W.

It's been overcast and raining lightly all morning, but it has got heavier with some southerly gusty winds over the last 10 minutes or so. Satellite imagery leads me to suspect it's more a feeder band from Nicole than a wave:
