It appears to be moving faster than the wave in front of it. As I have said before... It looks like this wave is going to sacrifice itself for the one in front.

NUMEROUS STRONG SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE OCCURRING FROM
12N TO 14N BETWEEN 14W AND 18W...FROM 11N TO 12N BETWEEN 17W
AND 19W...AND FROM 9N TO 10N BETWEEN 16W AND 18W. ALL THIS
CONVECTIVE PRECIPITATION EASILY ACCOMPANIES THE NEXT TROPICAL
WAVE THAT WILL HIT THE ATLANTIC OCEAN.


The above is from paragraph of ITCZ at 8 PM Discussion about the next wave to emerge Africa.

You can see on the visible loop that there is SAL getting sucked into this. The LLC it most likely had is most likely gone. We will have to watch it once it heads more westward. But shear is westward. So its a wait and see.
