Tropical disturbance becomes better organised
It is just off the African coast, but it seems that this system is organized enough already to be on the radar of the NHC. Again - this is a long way off and a lot can happen, but the conditions at the moment seem favorable for intensification:
BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, 10 August 2009 - A tropical disturbance in the far Eastern Atlantic Ocean continues to develop and could become a tropical depression in the next day or two.
The Tropical Prediction Centre (TPC) in Miami says there is a 1008MB low pressure area located along a tropical wave at 14 north and 23 west that is generating clusters of scattered moderate to isolated strong showers.
"Satellite imagery indicates a well defined low/mid level cyclonic circulation," the TPC says.
