Watching for Subtropical Development

Could be interesting and as usual ukmet and canadian are the western most and most aggresive (I think the Brits have it in for us

). Avn doesn't develop at all and nogaps is east of Bermuda. I don't think it will be a rain event at all but could cause beach erosion from Cape Hat to NJ coast considering the fetch between the low and the cold high in ne this weekend. The monkey wrench could be if the ull splits its energy and sends part of it to the developing low off PR, moon tide too.

Wow that is a good looking gale center but that same system formed the trough and the tail end brougt all the flooding rains to Puerto Rico.

Now it's very clear this will not develop into anything subtropical, as it's already in frigid water. Enjoy looking at it on satellite imagery while you can; it's destined to merge with a trough in a day or so. In any event, a very interesting feature for the month of April to say the least.

I'll say that's still a nice spinning system in the western Atlantic.

Yep this is one of the better systems i have seen in April.......Not long from now in less then a month and a half it begins......

I surely cant wait. This system we have been looking at sure does add to the excitement.

If it were august this low center would develop into a ST,TD,TS or even a cane because at that month warm waters are in that area.But agree that it is a good looking low center for this month and this is like a preview of the real season soon arriving.

The water temperature where the well-developed gale center is around 70º...However, as SC alluded to, within 24 hours, it should merge with a trough. Most impressive April system I can remember since the ST back in April of 1992.

*LOL* - Right after my afternoon post, I watched this closely and had a debate with another person on another board, and became more and more convinced that this would become an ST if it could gain a warm-core low (or subtropical characteristics).
Part of the reason I posted the SST map earlier as well.
