Currently the wave looks way better then it did and once it gets in the gulf it should have more of a chance. Let me say this though if it does develop it going to make some people look like idiots. Forecasters should never say never to any entity, because things change fast and all forecasters know this but they always act like things don't change fast. I bet the other day all the people that said this thing was going to develop when it looked good were made to eat alot of crow, so i wouldn't get on someone for complaining about everyone sticking a fork in this one. I currently have not stuck a fork in this one and i won't till its over land like every forecaster should do, because you never know.

We cant have a discussion without someone thinking it is a fight now?
BTW...... have you read what I have been saying all along with this wave, its done as far as its Caribbean life goes, I never said there wasnt potential when/if it gets into the gulf. However, with the way it looks now, Im worried it may not make it over the Yucatan, but the better environment IMO is in the GOM.

Its pretty obvious its difluent flow that is helping it fire it up, but like last time, this is not favorable for development
If thats the case then we shouldn't be watching 98L. Because its the same thing for this entity.

rbaker
never said it has circulation except for broad circulation at the most, and I see its strung out.
Funny how you say its running out of water, you have been saying that now for about a day and a half, and bascially it's in the same area that it was 24hours ago, hardly the 25mph that you said it was going. We could argue this all night long, I guess I don't give up on waves like you do because they lost their llc or were ripped apart for a couple days.
Maybe, you ought to look at Andrew in 92. And before you say it I know this is no Andrew in potential, but what systems can do.

Just light your tone a little bit... this is for entertainmen man.
I have been in disagreement many times here but not as you are. I always watch the way I put my points....But you are correct, this is not my problem...I am gone...

It WAS going 25 mph awhile ago, I did not post all day yesterday on this entity(if at all on anything) for you to come to that conclusion. Yes the wave HAS slowed down, as expected, but it IS heading towards land.... Im only giving up on it for the rest of the Caribbean because I dont think it has much of a chance, if it develops into something here, then Ill be sure to be the first to say that I was wrong, but I just dont see it. My fork in the wave is basically my forecast for it, no development likely in the Caribbean, this is the only point that I am trying to make.

Well cyclonman, you have your way of making points, and I have mine, I am not and have not and will not personally attack rbaker for his views on the wave, nor should he do so to me.
Of course I will keep watching what was 97L at one time, to monitor the situation. I guess I am more of a practical/realistic forecaster rather then looking at all the what ifs and sudden change theories. Yes the environment could change very quickly, but like i said im putting my money on the ULL still inhibiting development until it gets to the GOM, if it changes real quick, then hey, more power to ya. But what I am seeing, and what environmental conditions I am seeing are leading me to believe that its life is done in the Caribbean. To put it in short, i am more of a conservative forecaster rather then a forecaster who goes with the press the odds theories

I'll be the first to admit I gave up on 97L a few days ago. This latest blow up is very impressive. Do you all honestly think 97L has a chance of developing and hitting the U.S????? If it was up to me I would will the storm right up the upper Texas coast. What needs to occur for that to happen?
