Wow, and some really strong +MJO was over the CPAC a couple of days ago, but it seems weaker now.

bump again this went down to the bottom of the second page and some are trying to view it.

Been thinking, shouldn't this be a sticky? (The MJO is a big factor for us Californians during winter also, the record rains last year were caused by the MJO.)

After finding out that Katrina formed and went to category 5 under a dry MJO, I haven't paid too much attention to it.

Nevertheless, MJO promotes general widespread tropical development. Pockets of very favorable environment can exist during a dry phase, such as for Katrina.

Oh boy another favorable factor for Rita apart from the no shear and very warm waters as the wet phase of MJO is starting to filter into the GOM..

Can you imagine an environment even more favorable than that Katrina had? Well, we've got it. Now add the MJO. And look where that is. Right along the Texas coast. Oy vey. :cry:

We can expect some more activity in the next few weeks as this factor will help enhance developments.By the way some models develop a wave in the eastern atlantic.

Yes the wet area or green lines on graphic looks very big now so it will take a while to exit the atlantic.
