12z GFS is more what one would expect for late-May. Major hurricane was beyond laughable.

@ToddKimberlain
Possible tropical cyclone development in the global models in 7-10 days appears related to a CCKW propagating out of east/central Pacific. Whatever forms, if anything, is likely to encounter considerable westerly shear. To be expected in late May. #tropics #heavyrain #hurricane

If this pans out,it will be a big coup for GFS that has been with this for many days regardless if it has shown cat 1-2 hurricane in some of it's runs.

ECMWF like the GFS show this heading towards the SE GOM area in the long-range. How about this agreement between the two best models at hour 240?!?

Gator,

It looks like the ECMWF has the system moving NE towards Florida. It also has it as a 1000mb TS which looks like a moderate strength TS. Need to watch future runs if this continues.

Looks like convection is forming down in the NW Caribbean but I’m not sure if it’s part of the GOM system or a separate system.

Actually, the GFS had been predicting this storm to develop beyond the range of the Euro until very recently (13-15 days out). A week ago, the GFS was predicting the storm to develop this Friday/Saturday. With time, the development shifted to late next week. About the time development fell to within 10 days, the EC and CMC picked up on it.

I'd say development chances are very high, given that it's a holiday weekend and my team is short-staffed that weekend (and we all have plans). Yep, it's a certainty that something will develop...

A week too early. That blob is something else.

:uarrow: just some convection caused by convergence, not the CAG like the future disturbance comes out of

Classic late-May/early-June development. TS Beryl 2007 and TS Alberto 2006 ring a bell?

The June East Gulf slop storm, which used to be an every other year affair is morphing into an annual tradition.

It'd be kind of wild to have a two week long rainy deluge here that is topped off with a tropical storm at the end.

For what it's worth: NAVGEM is on board showing a weak low pressure in the Yucatan Channel at 180 hours. The experimental FV3 has a potent hurricane in the Yucatan Channel at 240 hours, slightly to the southwest of the EURO's position (EURO being considerably weaker)

GFS has the timeframe considerably closer now compared to previous runs.

Shows development is assisted by the WWB in the EPAC that has spread into the western Caribbean.

18Z GFS has a sheared 1001 mb TS moving over South Florida at 234 hours, then strengthens it to 990 mb off the coast of Naples at 240 hours.
