Re: Area of disturbed weather near the Greater Antilles
Yeah with some model support (although weak), the NHC should start mentioning it in their TWO soon.

Re: Area of disturbed weather near the Greater Antilles
Shear is minimal.
There is also convergence, but not much divergence.

I was eyeballing that this afternoon as well. Seems like some kind of low might be spinning up there based on satellite appearance ...

Re: Area of disturbed weather near the Greater Antilles
Still looks like a sharp trough there south of Cuba. Certainly something to keep an eye on.....MGC

Re: Area of disturbed weather near the Greater Antilles
Seems a bit odd to suggest a depression is likely but storm or hu chance is zilch...

He's basing it on the 12z EPS graphic he posted showing up to a 90% chance of a tropical depression in that area out to day 3.

Lots of convection north of Jamaica this evening and the shear has let up.

Euro develops a closed low but keeps it weak. Either conditions aren't ideal for increased development or its typical global model resolution issues.

Re: Area of disturbed weather near the Greater Antilles
A broad area of low pressure has formed over the northwestern
Caribbean Sea between Grand Cayman and Jamaica, and is producing a
small area of showers and thunderstorms. Development, if any, of
this system is expected to be slow to occur while it moves to the
west-northwest near the Yucatan peninsula in a couple of days, and
across the southern Gulf of Mexico by Friday.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.

Re: Area of disturbed weather in NW Caribbean
Things have gotten less boring down there for sure with today's developments. The CPC extended outlooks have also trended a tad wetter for the southeast too after being (correctly) very dry for quite some time...in what could be a nod to at least some tropical moisture influx. Nice to see a few fast moving showers over the peninsula today...we could use some rain over a good bit of the region..
