Yellow Box on wave along 34W.
Pushy sucker.  Getting dry air out of its path.

Persistant Convection on wave along 54W.
Doing battle with SAL.

Moderate LL vorticity on both and trying to dodge shear just to their north.

Looks like SAL is pooping out from the islands east.

Still strong in the Carib; but the dust should settle by the end of the weekend.
