I am just looking through the 18z GFS (which is just rolling in) currently out to +H132

The model blows up convection from about 84 Hours and it looking rather tasty at +H132 - centred around 15N 31W

I will stay up until the whole run is out so that I can post a loop - but it looks like the 18z GFs is onto something....

Edit -

Still there on 18z GFSA through +168H

Hmm, moderately bullish TWO language for a system first introduced. Its still not so late that things cant form east of the Lesser Antilles, especially only a little ways east as this thing appears to be. Interesting area of convection at 9-10N, 48 west.

Definitely worth ursine monitoring.

TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
805 PM EDT FRI SEP 21 2007

TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION FOR NORTH AMERICA...CENTRAL
AMERICA...THE GULF OF MEXICO...THE CARIBBEAN SEA...NORTHERN
SECTIONS OF SOUTH AMERICA...AND THE ATLANTIC OCEAN TO THE
AFRICAN COAST FROM THE EQUATOR TO 32N. THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION
IS BASED ON SATELLITE IMAGERY...METEOROLOGICAL ANALYSIS...
WEATHER OBSERVATIONS...AND RADAR.

BASED ON 1800 UTC SURFACE ANALYSIS AND SATELLITE IMAGERY THROUGH 2315 UTC.

A LOWER LATITUDE TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 38W S OF 15N MOVING W 10
KT. MUCH OF THE WAVE ENERGY HAS BEEN ABSORBED WITHIN THE ITCZ.
THIS HAS MADE THE POSITION DIFFICULT TO PIN POINT WITH THE
CURRENT AXIS DRAWN THROUGH THE VERY BROAD FAINT INVERTED V-SHAPE
WITHIN THE ITCZ. ASSOCIATED SHOWERS AND TSTMS HAVE BECOME
INCREASINGLY DIFFUSE SPREAD OUT BY THE MODERATE TO STRONG
DIVERGENT MID TO UPPER FLOW IN THE AREA. SCATTERED MODERATE
CONVECTION IS FROM 9N-12N BETWEEN 36W-44W.

I just wanted a somewhat clever way of saying "bears watching." In any case, it does, but nothing to worry about yet.

Oh, come on, folks! You know what's gonna happen. Anything that develops out of this will hit The Great Wall of Shear at 60W and end up like poor ol' Ingrid.

This is one wave to watch..ECMWF brings a low just east of the islands in 72 and into the Bahamas in about 7 days. Other models are also hinting at development. All models bring very heavy rainfall at the very least to the island chain in about 3 days.
