Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
In Puerto Rico, we expect a lot of rain with this waves passage from late Thursday thru Saturday.

A tough road for it in short term.

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
Yep, lots of dry air. However, if you look at a water vapor loop, the dry air in front of it is also moving W at a similar speed. So it may be able to moisten its environment and create a moist pocket. The dry air should keep it in check for now, but I don't think it will kill it like with previous waves.

How did you get that image? I would love to be able to look at that in the future.

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
12z ICON develops this over Puerto Rico next week, 12z CMC gets this into the Bahamas as an open wave, and 12z GFS is broken and won’t load but probably kills the wave off entirely like every other previous run.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

Looks like the GFS develops it when it gets to the southern and central Bahamas area.

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
I don't know if it is drunk, but 12Z GEFS fwiw is by far the most active run since 5 days ago with 5 of 31 members as hurricanes near and just east of the SE Bahamas on Sept 19th.
Edit: There's not much development til Sept 16th after passing 55W.

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
GFS gets it into the Gulf below the keys but then it just dissipates…

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
Regarding this AEW now near 40W, the 0Z UKMET dropped it again, but the 12Z just brought it back once more only to have it dissipate in the NE Caribbean while it is moving WNW as it runs into Hispaniola:

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
GEFS is starting to like this TW with more members coming on board with development.
This now may become in invest during the next 24 hrs if trends continue for development.

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
2 PM TWO:
Central Tropical Atlantic:
A tropical wave located midway between the west coast of Africa and
the Windward Islands continues to produce a large area of
disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Some slow development of
this system is possible over the next several days while it moves
generally westward to west-northwestward over the central tropical
Atlantic and approaches the Windward Islands by the end of the week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

It is all of the sudden the most active GEFS by far in 5 days and thus we'll have to see whether or not this is just an oddball run. There's little development until passing 55W east of and near the Leewards 9/15-16. By September 21, it has per Tidbits 8 hurricanes and 2 TS amongst its 31 members.

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
Here's the 12z GFS, for some reason it has it opening back up to a wave over the Lesser Antilles then redeveloping over the southern Bahamas later in the period.

Re: Central Atlantic Tropical Wave
I think that other than the precursor to Earl, which was kind of similar, this AEW has by a good margin the most widespread convection since the precursor to Bonnie way back in late June.
