Re: Area of Interest: Invest 94L

As of 3:45 PM EDT Aug. 20, 94L is finally consolidating around a more dominant, and now well-defined LLC, centered at 15.6N 47W, with movement to the west at 20-25 MPH.

Most recently, a thunderstorm has begun firing right atop the LLC, and despite dry air in the region, this trend should continue, although perhaps in an on again-off again fashion.

It is now very possible that 94L becomes a tropical depression by midnight, and NHC gives odds of 80% that 94L becomes a TD at least within the next 48 hours.
