It's not surprising at all to see the models wait until 97L passes 75W for it to develop? That's right out of the tropical climatology textbook.

The ECMWF shows a 591DM ridge draped over the Gulf Coast at hour 144.

97L's trough axis passing through bouy 41041, pressure down a couple mb from yesterday. It should report SE winds by later this evening.

I know this is a about a week and a half away but just something to watch for the next few days,..

[TheStormExpert]

1007mb Tropical Depression or Tropical Storm @ 192hrs. on 12z Euro.

Texas bound on this run:

Well inland over S. Texas @ 216hrs.

[TheStormExpert]

The difference between the 12z GFS & Euro @ 192hrs.

[Blown Away]

Basically a very shallow TS at end of run, but more likely a TW all the way into Texas from ECMWF... Same thing for 96L until it crashes into PR/DR...

I wouldn't call this a tropical wave or that it shows it to be shallow.

...TROPICAL WAVES...
Tropical wave extends from 11N44W to 20N45W moving W at 20-25 kt.
The wave coincides with a relatively broad and amplified 700 mb
trough between 40W-52W and copious deep layer moisture noted in
SSMI Total Precipitation Water Vapor Imagery. Recent scatterometer
data also indicates associated surface troughing with an area of
fresh trades on the northern portion of the surface trough from
14N-21N between 43W-50W. Scattered moderate convection is from
12N-16N between 42W-50W. As this wave moves W during the next
several days...the trades accompanied by potentially higher gusts
will move across the Atlc waters north of the Greater Antilles and
waters surrounding the Turks and Caicos...SE Bahamas...and eastern
and central Cuba creating hazardous boating conditions.

Bears watching IMO. Still many days away from West Carib./GOM but GFS and Euro tracks reminiscent of a weaker Dolly 2008.

Interesting see the forecast for Invest 97L is more southernly than Invest 96L.

That's because the high pressure to its north will be a lot stronger as it reaches the NE Caribbean on Sunday than it will be when 96W reaches near the NE Caribbean. Models are in pretty good agreement that 97W will reach the NW Caribbean next Thursday and move into the SW Gulf next Friday. That's where it will have its best chance of developing.

while both are important to watch. i wouldnt discount this one just yet. all the odds are against it, and everyone is looking more at 96 given its higher chances. this could be the type of storm that gets diminished down to a TW over the islands and ends up being the zombie storm and comes back from what most will think as dead once it hits that nice bathtub temp water in the GOM. 97L is the underdog. the record GOM Hurricane drought is ending soon. the coast from yucatan to AL should definitely be watching this one so that a katrina type situation of everyone rushing to evac at last minute wont happen.
