If only it would take a hard right at the Yucatan and head due north. We desperately need some deficit-reducing rainfall here before the onset of summer.

This feature really shouldn't be referred to as a T-wave. It's a weak baroclinically-derived/enhanced inverted trough that forms from the carcass of the old frontal boundary that settled southward across Florida this past Sunday-Monday.

i think hpc used the term ely wave.. which isn't exactly the same thing as tropical wave. trough would be sufficient in my eyes.
