“Talking the Tropics With Mike”: Active tropical wave over the E. Atlantic

Tracking tropical wave

Tracking an active tropical wave - 94L - over the Eastern Atlantic.  For the second time in just 2 weeks, we have an unseasonably early African wave that has the potential to develop.  The first was "Bret".  '94L' will continue west/northwest gradually gaining latitude.  Early indications are for a recurve to the east of Florida about the middle of next week, but it's still very early on what will likely become "Don".  The GFS model has had a tendency to be the strongest &, therefore, indicating earlier recurvature while some other long range global models show a weaker/more shallow system that could get farther west.
