A tropical wave with an associated area of low pressure in the Eastern Atlantic is increasing the potential to become the next tropical depression of the season. Satellite imagery along with surface analysis charts revealed a broad area of low pressure centered near 1009 millibars at 9N-34W. Much of the convection is currently west of the low-pressure area due to easterly shear from a superimposed upper anticyclone to its northeast. Despite this, convection has incr...

However the feature is embedded along the ITCZ so there is no indications that the area is self-sustaining. Conditions in the MDR south of 20N should be favorable over the next 5 days and models are developing a tropical storm from this area, particularly the ECMWF, CMC an...
