Luis, lol Avila. I agree, it really looks good this morning. This, from the 8:05 NHC Discussion:
...TROPICAL WAVES...
TROPICAL WAVE BETWEEN THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS AND THE COAST OF W
AFRICA ALONG 21W S OF 19N MOVING W 10-15 KT. HOVMOELLER
DIAGRAMS SHOW A DISTINCT CLUSTER OF TSTMS MOVING ACROSS W AFRICA
OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS...AND THE TIMESECTIONS FROM BAMAKO
AND DAKAR SHOW A WAVE PASSAGE PRIMARILY BELOW 800 MB. THE WAVE
APPEARS TO BE TILTED TO THE EAST WITH HEIGHT...WITH THE
LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION ABOUT 100 NM AHEAD OF THE CONVECTION...AND
THIS SEEMS TO AGREE WITH THE VERTICAL SOUNDINGS FROM W AFRICA.
VISIBLE IMAGERY FROM MET-8 ALSO SHOWS A WELL-DEFINED LOW-LEVEL
CIRCULATION APPROACHING THE CAPE VERDES. NUMEROUS
MODERATE/STRONG CONVECTION FROM 8N-11N BETWEEN 19W-23.5W.

The convection you do is is SOUTH of the circ in the ITCZ; there's no circ directly under the convection or anything.
Dang it Derecho!! Why did you have to show up today..lol I hate it when the facts don't support some dreamy development..lol
