Good morning.
TD #9 continues to move west slowly and is expected to turn to the NW and eventually N and NE. The NHC has not revised its track since yesterday and yesterday's chart still holds. (see 8-29-16 forecast track/diagram). Pressures are dropping (29.62" last advisory) and the system is expected to become a tropical storm today. We should continue to see enhanced shower activity through Thursday due to higher atmospheric moisture associated with this system.
Of note is that the tropical wave which I wrote about yesterday moved off the African coast last night. Yesterday it moved SW and exited the coast at around 12 degrees N latitude. (see yesterday's post)
I'll be watching it.
Until next time,
Matt.
