Re: The Upcoming West African Double Header

The lead wave came off the coast of west Africa this morning. With a strong increase in the easterly flow, this was about a day ahead of schedule. The system left the coast at 18N into water temps of 25 to 26C and almost immediately lost most of its convection.

The trailing wave decreased significantly in size last night although it still maintains a small area of convection.
