East Coast low: We have a complex situation here that needs to be monitored very closely. The center of low pressure is near 31 north and 77 west per my satellite observations. This low is currently at the upper and mid levels of the atmosphere but is trying to work it's way down to the surface, no questions about it. It is gaining thunderstom activity around the low pressure center pretty quickly due to the moist air that is around the system. This system has all of the looks of a upper-level low trying to become a tropical surface feature. This one could be a depresson by Sunday or Monday. I haven't looked into where this one might head yet.
Wave east of Windwards: This one actually looks halfway decent considering it's in a fairly dry area of the basin. This one likely won't develop but I believe it's a precursor to the Cape Verde season starting in the next 2-3 weeks.
There are also decent waves over Africa courtesy of the western Pacific quieting down. I will monitor these for development. Even if these don't develop, they will help moisten the atmosphere for future waves that will be of great concern possibly...
Time to get some opinions on where the East Coast low may be headed.
Make YOURSELF heard with THE POLL!
The tropics are waking up.... oh boy we're in for a bumpy ride.
