A relatively vigorous tropical wave for so early in the season, presently located roughly 1400 miles or so east-southeast of the Lesser Antilles, is producing moderate showers and thunderstorms.
The wave, mostly noted from 15N 39W to 7N 42W, is unlikely to develop in the near to mid range, but might be something to watch more closely, given its unseasonably strong impression.

The tropical wave continues to be well-defined with some good convection. At 06/18Z the wave was located near 14N 46W or about 850 miles east of the Lesser Antilles. The wave continues to move slowly to the west. Strong westerly windshear will delay the potential for any development until early (Sunday-Monday) next week.

There is a convective area lingering over the Yucatan that seems detached from the tail of Andrea...might this also be a potential area for more activity?
