2002 comments sounds like an odd place to stop.

Yea it does. The blogs usually are capable of going much further into the thousands. I've never seen their limit

IF (really big if) Yak is around, he'll be notified shortly.

2000 comments, eh? Heck that could cover less than four hours if there's something really going on out there.

I was surprised when it stopped at 2003. I thought it was capable of going past 3000

LOL banned from the Weather456's monkey cage blog.

Line of convergence/perturbation south of the CV islands should be watch for development. There are no signs of a surface low at this time.

Do you see anything out there that could develop into a depression in the next 3 days? I don't....


It could potentially develop into something as the perturbation tightens up. Right now there is not enough support to suggest development of a tropical storm.

Just checking my vocabulary.

Is "perturbation" just a fancy word for disturbance?

Correct. These disturbances typical start out as a line of convergence with a bend in the flow (cyclonically curved band.

Thanks, and the lift from the convergence at 1000MB causes lift thus creating convection.

Looking at satellite imagery it looks like the disturbance entangled in the ITCZ. Do you agree?

Correct. When we look at the Quicksat we see winds coming west and winds coming from east that meet up creating a convergence axis. This axis is where the lift occurs. The disturbance is very entangle within the ITCZ.

What causes perturbation's that are dependent on the ITCZ to spin off?

A closed area of low pressure form that has completely bent the flow within the ITCZ. It pulls away from the ITCZ to better establish itself as the circulation becomes more defined.

Thank You Drakoen. That all makes perfect sense, and now I better understand how the ITCZ works.

Good evening to you Drak... I have been lurking with nothing much to add to any tropical discussion... IMO, with the ITCZ finally lifting north, and westerly shear also slacking off, I do believe that there will be some REAL activity to follow in the next ten days.


Keep up the excellent work!!!

Yes it is possible although nothing is imminent as we head deeper into August we really gotta watch think as conditions overall become more favorable. Thanks for stopping by!
