Looking fairly organized. I guess the season is now kicking into high gear, much like Dr. Gray was forecasting with September really starting up big time.

THE COAST OF AFRICA AND IS NOW LOCATED ABOUT 450 MILES SOUTHEAST OF
THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS. THIS SYSTEM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME A

Appreciate the folks that are keeping an eye on these two tropical waves. Invest 90L was near 13N 46W at 28/15Z and may be developing a circulation center at about a degree further north. This system has good structure and the potential to become a Tropical Depression in the next day or two.
Invest 91L is in the far eastern Atlantic just off the African west coast near 9N 19W at 28/15Z. This wave has excellent structure and despite the far eastern location, it could become a Tropical Depression at any time in the next 24 hours. Both waves are moving westward.
Cheers,
ED
