Re: Invest 92L forms southeast of CVs. ATL entering an early Cape Verde mode?

As impressive as this wave looks. I'm still wondering if they are not jumping the gun with the invest tag. SST are marginal at best. The convection is not all that impressive since it hit the open water. I hate to say it, but the NHC has taken alot of heat in the last few years. I'm wondering if they are pandering to the media with this wave. It looks to be media driven wave mongering. Last year we had a few waves that were discussed on this forum for 2 or 3 days before an invest was tagged.

As far out as this wave is, why not let it get off the coast and see if it holds together for a day or so? If it holds its own....Tag it. I would understand this if it were in the Leewards or Windwards, but its not even all the way off the coast of Africa.
