first, one thing: does anyone other than me think Cindy was a minimal hurricane at landfall?
someone mentioned the Africa system in teh other thread, and this is from the TWD at 2:30:
EAST ATLANTIC TROPICAL WAVE IS LOCATED IN THE VICINITY OF 30W S OF 23N. UPPER AIR SOUNDINGS FROM DAKAR AND SAL SHOW WAVE PASSAGE NEAR 18Z JUL 3 AND 18Z JUL 4...RESPECTIVELY...WHICH SUPPORTS A SLOW WWD TRANSLATION OF 5-10 KT. THE WAVE PRESENTS A COMPLEX STRUCTURE AT THE MOMENT. MET-7 VISIBLE IMAGERY SHOWS A STRONG LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION ABOUT 200 NM SW OF THE CAPE VERDES...WHICH IS SUPPORTED BY QUIKSCAT IMAGERY...
IR VIS 98L by Friday probably if it holds together
Dennis is now strengthening, and the dry air to the west that was there earlier is now gone, replaced by a fully-wrapped CDO. The outflow has also become better defined in the last several hours. I expect we will see an eye begin to form before the end of the night. Anyone think it will become a Cat IV?
