Is that thing starting to spin, or have i been looking at this screen for too long.

You're not going to find a developing surface rotation on water vapor imagery. You need to look at high-res visible imagery. It's just a tropical wave racing along so fast that it won't be able to organize. Half of it is now over South America:

It may come off South America around Colombia, and cross Panama or Nicaragua, and I unofficially give this a 50/50 shot of being our next E-Pac invest.

Atlantic is producing waves that look like they have something to them on satellite but really don't. Still negativo out there.
