Quiet, for Now, in Late August

Additions - Sunday 11AM
Other areas noted this morning include a couple of small and marginally active tropical waves near 13N 35W and 10N 42W. Also a couple of active waves near 12N 76W and 21N 96.7W. The wave at 12N 76W, northwest of the Columbian shore has a small chance for some additional development over the next couple of days. The wave in the Bay of Campeche does have a weak circulation and it has been almost stationary for the past 6 hours - but it is also very close to the Mexican coast. Otherwise it remains uncommonly quiet in the basin - but thats a 'positive' at this time of year.

There are no disturbances ready to develop into something right now, so, thankfully, this is a quiet weekend and at least first part of the week coming up.

The only long shots are a wave around 48 west which is still too far south, and not really active enough to have a shot to develop anytime soon. That area has persisted for a while, however, but it has shear around it and the circulation is very weak.



Beyond that is a few model projections which may be hinting at something in the East Atlantic coming off Africa in 3 or 4 days time. If they are phantom waves or not, remains to be seen.

In short, looks like to be a quiet first part of the week coming up.
