Well it looks like the 0z GFS decides to spin something up and sends it to Ivan's house.. :lol: ...of course from 72hrs to 324hr it basically moves at snails pace...doesnt seem realistic.

Um...exact repeat of the last Arlene.

Not sure if something starting exactly the same as 2005 would be a good sign.

Large monsoonal low expected to develop would likely need some help from a rather strong tropical wave to offer much chance of consolidation. I just don't see that on the horizon right now, but something to watch none the less. Enjoy the remainder of the Memorial Day long weekend. :flag:

the GFS sits this down into carib from about 72hrs out to 300+....not realistic..but since its monsoon in orgin then maybe Steve you are right. Might take a long time to stack. Shear is not exactly ideal right now.

now the 6z GFS seems a bit more realistic though it keeps it weak and buries it into Belize.....72hr to 232hr is a long time to hang around

where is everyone? I feel so alone...

We could handle a Tropical Storm up here on the Gulf Coast, we are in drought conditions!

Obviously folks are enjoying the weekend, as many of our regulars aren't lighting up the boards regarding what could be our first action of the season!

Its 2 weeks out so there can't be much more to this than climatological probability.
I don't think they have an actual wave assigned to this yet.

Often there is a monsoon low down around the Panama region that gives us our first TD in the gulf.
Are the shear and low level surface pressures different this year?

The Euro Ensembles favor the developing disturbance a bit more west than the operational Euro at 144 hrs out.

I for one sure hope this develops into something and makes its way towards the north central gulf coast area, although very doubtful it will happen. A little off topic but we are in a drought in a very bad way right now. Had about .35 in of rain for may and not much more in april. Also the highs have been at or over 90 for weeks. This week we are forecast to reach the mid 90's with not a chance of rain and long range NWS is saying by the end of next week into next weekend we could see highs into the upper 90's -low 100's :double: . It is affecting my business and now my bank accounts. Sure hope we can get a little tropical action sometime in June.

12z CMC is more bullish on this run.

12Z GFS back to cranking it up the next 5 days but then weakening it as it slowly heads toward the southern gulf.

12Z GFS

Animated 12Z CMC

I have no idea why the CMC would want to forecast a hurricane with all this wind shear or I'm I reading this map wrong??

Hot darn, CMC hurricane number 1 of 150 for 2011.

It's always fun to watch the CMC, it develops everything. Swear it was designed by JB.

Reality is more like the euro. What does it say?
