A tropical wave with good structure and modest convection has moved off of the west coast of Africa. The wave has a possible weak low center near 8N 20W at 24/18Z. Although the latitude is rather low it has some good upper air dynamics - except that easterly shear is moderate and increasing. SSTs are a cool 24C but moderate to about 28C near 10N 30W.
No development anticipated for a couple of days, but if the wave can remain intact, some slow development is possible on Sunday as the system moves over warmer ocean waters and wind shear declines. ED
