"A moist Tropical Wave associated with two areas of low pressure currently over western Africa is forecast to emerge over the far eastern Atlantic early next week. Conditions appear favorable for development, and the NHC is giving this system 30% odds next week while it moves westward at 15 - 20 MPH. This wave has a pouch we are tracking, P25L, but has not yet been assigned an Invest tag. It is likely to get one when it enters the Atlantic, and the title will be updated at that time. Model runs are understandably bullish on this one, and it has the potential to become a long track Cape Verde tropical cyclone. Interests from the Cabo Verde islands westward may want to follow it closely if development looks increasingly likely. "-- flhurricane.com
I love these new "pouches" that were invented after "invests" were invented so click seeking websites could start following these systems 20 days ahead of time, instead of 15 days ahead of time. This map shows where 30 different models (not including the dozens of other models that predict it won't develop) predict this pouch will be two weeks from now. so if you live somewhere between New Orleans and Iceland, this system may be coming your way. Or it might not be.
It looks like a Petri dish with bacterial cultures growing after swabbing codfishes nasal foramina.....
