Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
FWIW the 12z CMC looks like the 12z ICON

Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
Atlantic ridging is above normal, so a weaker system will continue W or WNW towards the islands. A stronger system will gain a little more latitude but models have this one coming off pretty far south. So folks in the islands keep an eye out.

GFS ensembles very spread out.

Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
So far icon and cmc show a recurve and gfs basically shows a tropical wave. What the euro shows in the next hour will be very telling if this will be a trend or not

Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
Another tropical wave is expected to move off the west coast of
Africa in a few days. Some development of this system will be
possible through the middle of next week while it moves westward
across the eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
There’s a split in the models and it has to do with future 95L’s forward speed. Faster movement, slower development will likely pass underneath the split in the ridge. If that happens then we are in trouble.

Could be future 96L with the possible Bahamas development.

Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
12Z Euro looks like a recurve well NE of the Lesser Antilles. The last three model runs have trended more north and stronger:

Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
So what is happening with Chanthu's indirect ability to strengthen the ridge over Canada as Eric Webb pointed out?

Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
Seems like the Bahamas system could become a key player in determining this system’s track, as it helps open a break in the ridge off the east coast.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

Re: Strong Tropical Wave to emerge from West Africa early next week
The low pressure that will form near the Bahamas may be the cause for the ridge to break.

That’s it for the cv season. Not likely to have any Florida threats through the end of September.

Good to know how reliable one single model run that only goes up to Sep 20 is in predicting the future through Sep 30.

Also a few models have it as a powerful hurricane passing through Hebert Box 1. Interesting.

This is why I love ensembles, not singular model runs.
