...TROPICAL WAVES...

A strong tropical wave has been added to the 1200 UTC surface map
near the west coast of Africa based on visible satellite imagery
and the Hovmoller Diagram, that shows very well the westward
propagation of the wave. Its axis extends from 12N15W to 04N15W. A
cluster of moderate to strong convection is along the wave axis
from 06N to 09N between 13W and 17W. Scattered moderate to
isolated strong convection is noted elsewhere from 03N to 10N
between 12W and 19W.

Glad someone has mentioned this wave. It looks very strong.

Very healthy wave, almost seems like it's mid August instead of mid June!!!

If it was August, we'd be in a world of trouble if it looked like that

Thanks my friend! Strong is right and is even an euphemisma . I don't know what the models do with it by this feature has a pretty robust and impressive appareance for an early June

Anyone have a feed from satellite?

Anyone have a feed from satellite?

Since it's about Midnight over the area of interest, I couldn't find any satellite feed

A strong tropical wave was added to the 1200 UTC surface map near
the west coast of Africa based on visible satellite imagery and
the Hovmoller Diagram. Its axis extends now from 11N16W to
04N16W. Scattered moderate convection extends from 03N-11N between
14W-21W.

An Atlantic Ocean tropical wave is along 19W/20W from 12N
southward, moving westward 10 to 15 knots. Scattered moderate to
strong from 07N to 09N between 16W and 22W. Isolated moderate to
locally strong elsewhere from 02N to 10N between 10W and 23W.

The fact that we're looking at potential development in the Caribbean/Gulf, and all the while are looking at two very impressive tropical waves in the far east Atlantic.... is rather insane for June. This early activity may not be an indicator of things to come but I'd lean a bit more on the side of suspecting that it might.

A tropical wave extends from 11N20W to 03N21W moving westward at
10 to 15 kt. A cluster of moderate to strong convection is noted
on the east side of the wave axis, covering the area from 07N to
09N between 17W and 21W. Scattered moderate to isolated strong
convection is noted elsewhere from 02N to 07N between 21W and
25W. The wave shows up pretty well in the TPW product and 700
streamline analysis.

The 18zGfs is showing this one may also need to be watched for development

[Dougiefresh]

Within the last 6 hours it has really flared up and probably causing the invest some trouble.

A tropical wave is in the E Atlc with axis extending from 10N27W
to 01N28W, moving W at 20 kt within the last 24 hours. The wave
is in a region of favorable wind shear, however the wave lacks
deep convection at the time due to Saharan dry air intrusion to
its environment.
