This is the lounge discussion Forum for Invest 91L currently east southeast of the Cape Verde Islands.
The system is still somewhat small but convection seems to be well established and SSTs of 28C would support additional development. A zone of westerly windshear exists to the north of the system. Some of the models suggest development and recurvature while others like the keep the system on more of a westerly to west northwesterly track under a strengthening Atlantic ridge.
This is the place for your long-term projections on the system that might eventually become Humberto.

TS Humberto currently south of the southern Cape Verde Islands moving to the west at 10 knots. An upper level low is expected to push southwestward toward the Canary Islands and alter the east Atlantic ridge. This change in the steering currents should move Humberto more to the northwest in a couple of days. Humberto could eventually become the seasons first hurricane.
