The SAL is too strong attm. But, once the SAL leaves, this could crank up quickly. I think this might end up being a Caribbean threat.

I tend to agree

I think our wave neearing 40w has some potential in a day or two. Either way most guidance brings this system towards the west and nearing the islands in 3-4 days. Something to watch closely...

TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
205 PM EDT MON AUG 21 2006


...TROPICAL WAVES...

TROPICAL WAVE IN THE E ATLC HAS BEEN ADJUSTED AHEAD ALONG 41W S
OF 19N MOVING W NEAR 20 KT. A 1012 MB LOW IS PLACED ON THE
WAVE NEAR 10N. THIS SFC LOW IS VERY BROAD...BUT SFC OBS AND A
09Z QUIKSCAT PASS HAS HELPED LOCATE THE LOW CENTER. THE WAVE
ITSELF IS ALSO BROAD...BUT IS HIGH AMPLITUDE WITH CYCLONIC
TURNING COVERING A LARGE AREA ABOUT THE AXIS. FURTHER
DEVELOPMENT DOES NOT APPEAR LIKELY AT THIS TIME DUE TO ITS VERY
BROAD NATURE AND THE LARGE AREA OF SAHARAN DUST THAT SURROUNDS
THE NRN EXTENSION OF THE WAVE

Some of the global models are starting to pick up on this area.

GFS

Nogaps

Ukmet..

Dispite the saharan dust.... it's probably good to continue to monitor this area for future development.

The central atlantic is looking more vibrant with the Wet Phase of MJO in the area.

C A R I B B E A N

Every other spelling error (including my own) can pass....but it's Caribbean, not Carribean (no matter HOW you say it!) 8-)
Don't tell any weather systems though, they can ALL go to the Carribean (which I believe is located about 800 due east of Bermuda) and that will be fine with me.

I wonder if the increase in development is due to TD4 starting to back-block the SAL like Derek indicated before. The back wave sacrifices to the one more ahead.

I use 1024 x 768, which is recommended for this site, and I often have to scroll when people post large images. A link or thumbnail is always a better choice anyway, and the user has the option of clicking on it or not. :)

It should be visible at night, because the last time the shuttle went up, they installed a real big flash on the satellite. :D
