06z GFS develops a TC in the MDR in roughly 150 hours, and keeps it around long enough for it to become a major hurricane in the super long range.

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.

All I can say is I hope no one is buying the idea of a serious lull coming up

Nothing in the modeling suggests a tc outbreak is looming. EPS is meh

ICON, CMC and UKMet all develop the lemon, and they have been the only models that have detected genesis properly this season. All 3 show Caribbean cruiser

Really? Have you not learned yet that this year the Euro and GFS have both failed detecting genesis?

What's going on down in the Caribbean? There has been a lot of thunderstorms blowing up down there the last few days. Any models hinting at development?

Even if globals are right, a transition to quality over quantity with basin conditions like this ain't good

Colors of lost purpose on the canvas of irrelevance
Not a meteorologist, in fact more of an idiot than anything. You should probably check with the NHC or a local NWS office for official information.

The same EPS that was meh with Laura several days before landfall? The time of year favors a ramp up in TC activity regardless of what these flipping models show, they've been little to no help!

Yes - it's been spinning up that interesting area near 10N 45W the past several runs. The CMC and UK also likes this area

There were a few weak ENS signals of possible development there, nothing I think even got to TS though.

Yup. ICON, UK and CMC all show similar development in same basic area at 144hrs. So, for what seems the hundredth time this season ... "wonder when the Euro and GFS will catch up"?

The long-range 12z GFS has a trough swing into the upper Midwest which erodes the Bermuda High but it’s long range well over 300hrs. out.

The trend on the recent Euro runs has been for more development.
