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 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

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

Every other spelling error (including my own) can pass....but it's Caribbean, not Carribean (no matter HOW you say it!)
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 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.
