AS WELL AS ON A QUIKSCAT PASS FROM THIS MORNING...WHICH SHOWED
MODERATE ELY TRADES E OF THE TROUGH AXIS AND LIGHT NELY WINDS TO
THE W. CLUSTERS OF MODERATE/ISOLATED STRONG CONVECTION ARE
ASSOCIATED WITH THE TROUGH/LOW. THIS SHOWER/TSTM ACTIVITY
AFFECTS THE CARIBBEAN PLAINS OF NICARAGUA...THE SW CARIBBEAN AND

My vote is for an East Pac Alvin. Looks like the subsidence is already starting in the Caribbean.

Now why did the models say Carib?

The Model consensus is now with the E PAC, but the GFS and DGEX take the system back aross Central America.

That area currently has high pressure aloft so it's giving that "fanning" appearance to the convection and makes it look like a tropical system. I have to say though, convection has been rather persistant over the past few hours.

Yes you are right - but wouldn't surprise me if its poof overnight especially because of how early we are and the fact I have seen poofs in this area countless times (especially in 2006).
