The following information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar, and meteorological analysis. Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 0830 UTC. ...TROPICAL WAVES... A tropical wave along 83W north of 04N is moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is N of 07N within 30 nm of the wave axis. A tropical wave along 90W north of 04N is moving westward at 10 to 15 kt through a moist and unstable environment. Scattered moderate convection is N of 11N within 30 nm of the wave axis. A well-defined tropical wave along 105W from 06N to 18N is moving westward around 10 kt. A 1009 mb low is analyzed along the wave axis near 14N105W. Scattered moderate to strong convection is from 13N to 15N within 45 nm of the wave axis. Some development of this system is possible during the next two days before environmental conditions become less favorable. A tropical wave along 132W from 04N to 16N is moving westward at about 15 kt. Minimal convection is associated with the wave. ...INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE/MONSOON TROUGH... The monsoon trough axis extends from 08N78W to 10N96W to 14N103W to 10N111W to 12N120W to 11N128W. The ITCZ extends from 10N132W to beyond 09N140W.

The wave will move westward, and winds will diminish through Sunday. Winds are 20 kt or less, and wave heights are 8 ft or less elsewhere. Southerly cross-equatorial swell will span much of the forecast are S of 14N and east of 115W today and Sat. $$ Mundell
