OK here as well. The storm labelled 93L.INVEST is one of the off-shoots of
Stan. Two centres of activity (now merged again) crossed into the Pacific
and a third shot off NE back into the Caribbean. 94L.INVEST is a feature
that I've been watching for the past day or so, wondering whether it will
develop or, like many I've seen leaving Africa, look promising for a while
then fade away.


is it about now that the sea temperature off Africa drops a little so
that developmentonly occurs further to the west?

Looks warm enough at the moment -

systems keep moving westwards. Any early turns northward bring them over
the cooler waters before they fully develop. Looks like 94L is getting torn
apart and absorbed by another system.
