A new invest in Atlantic?

I dont know if it is an error that NRL does many times but there is a pic showing invest in the central tropical atlantic where there is a weak tropical wave around 40w.It says 93L and that number was for what is now Charley so I am a bit confused if this is 94L invest or it is the old one from days ago.Hurricanemike clarify this please.

I think that's an error on their part. There's nothing there to catch our eyes at this time.

Where they should be looking for possible invest classification is off the E. Coast of Florida, where we do have a non-tropical low pressure system that could become subtropical with time.

In fact, there are indications that this system is already starting to acquire some tropical characteristics. Don't be surprised to see a Subtropical T-Number with this system sometime today.


Update as of this morning:

The system does not appear to be getting better organized, so any intensification will likely take some time. UL winds are not as favorable now because the system is not moving to the East any longer. It's now moving NE and not at a fast speed which is not helping it with the shear.

Oops, accidentally clicked on the edit post, instead of the quote one and edited my previous OWN post!

I'll re-post it now.

I think it's an error, but perhaps they are gettting ready to put another invest for some other area.

Maybe a new invest for the area east of Florida but yes it is an error what is there now.
