Re: More African Waves...

The monsoon trough in the Indian Ocean is one of the causes that help those waves to move from the Indian Ocean into Africa and if that trough gets into Africa strong enough then the waves will be pretty big as they move thru the African continent and later they exit the west coast.But I know that there are more reasons for tropical waves to be active in Africa but I only gave one reason that causes them to be quite active.I think that there are other reasons however I know that soon enough someone will post about it.
