Shear around this system is 15 to 20 knots unfavorable.

The Quickscats show it sharping up with time maybe a surface low???
With some winds of 25 knots on the northeast quad.

We will have to see if development can have a chances if this shear weakens enough. But as of right now I give it 20 percent chance for development over the next 36 hours???

The global models keep it as a open wave as it moves through the Caribbean.
