Re: Azores - Canary Islands system

I've been watching 22L all day now. What I have noticed is the dry airstream to the north of 22L
slowly pushing west and south and curling around 22L. If it continues to do so for the next
6 to 10 hours I can see it curling up to the northeast around the back of 22L causing it to
deepen and take up a more westerly or south-westerly direction.

I know what the predictions are for 22L, and I also know that what I am saying flies in the face of the
official line. Being new to this I would be pleased if any of the more experienced storm trackers in the
forum would care to comment, even if it's only to call me crazy or any other choice phrase.

I am still trying to gain an impression of what makes these storms tick, how they are formed and what
drives them. I would really appreciate any feedback whatsoever if it helps me to get on the right track
and provides me with the insight I am looking for.
