The northern Leewards,Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico dont need another strike 2 years in a row.Let's hope Florence makes a big weakness.

With the way she's forecast to slow down some, that's a good possibility still.

Nearly all the convection has dived south to just north of 10N

2 PM TWO: 70%/90%

Shower activity associated with a broad area of low pressure
centered a couple of hundred miles south-southwest of the Cabo Verde
Islands is gradually becoming better organized. Environmental
conditions are forecast to be conducive for additional development,
and a tropical depression is expected to form during the next
couple of days while the system moves west-northwestward across the
tropical Atlantic Ocean.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.

This reminds me a lot of Jose from last year. Broad, messy low pressure system that organizes into a fairly compact TC around 40W and gradually strengthens as it moves WNW.

At 70/90 thought it had become well developed, but this is all that's there right now:

It's early days yet, but what Mark Sudduth says here, about the northeastern islands in the archipelago, is still disconcerting. (Incidentally, for those who don't know, Mark is an S2K member.)

Good discussion by Mark. Let's see what occurs in the next few days.

There is a definite mid-level spin and good structure though. If it can get a good convective burst over the middle to force the circulation to the surface, it will develop quickly.

I love Marks discussion. He explains everything in a very user friendly way and he doesn’t unnecessarily hype anything up.

Why? 92L maybe a real danger to PR?

That was pretty scary if I lived on the east coast. I would definitely be looking out to day 4,5 of this track!

Go North, go North,go way North!
Tomorrow is the one year anniversary of Hurricane Irma tearing St Maarten apart. We are still in recovery. Another storm would NOT be in our best interests!

Agree 100%. PR too is still in recovery mode after Maria as more than 150,000 homes are with the blue tarps and the power grid is still fragil.
