Quiet Across the Atlantic Basin
Last Updated: 23-NOV-2009 04:01am EST

The tropical Atlantic remains quiet and no tropical development will occur through at least early this week. There are a couple of very weak tropical waves to watch. One is over Central America and the other is southeast of Jamaica. There is very little shower and thunderstorm activity associated with these two waves, and it is unlikely that we will have any significant showers and thunderstorms around them over the next day or two. There is a lot of dry air aloft in this area and strong westerly winds aloft over the Caribbean are causing shear. There is some chance that the moisture and energy from these waves are pulled northward during the middle of this week into Florida, but even then it is unlikely that we see any development.
