Track is an interesting one, the models seem to be suggesting a strong upper high forming over the SE states again which would mean a W/WNW track towards CA/Yucatan and after that it all depends on the state of the high after that...frankly its a little early to say.
ECM probably overdoing the strength of the high IMO...but most likely track IMO is WNW into Yucatan then into the BoC/Southern Gulf and landfall in Mexico...maybe Texas...thats a classic La Nina track.
There is no strong upper high on the GFS

From nearly nothing on 12z to a nice sized storm on 18z...only the GFS.

Slides under some weak Upper ridging. No strong perma-ridge. This is gonna be one of those "fun" ones to track.
I think this is the real deal..

I think several systems this season has had the early "this one is gonna be a fun one" in the infant stages.

Not with this set up. First one to really traverse the NW Caribbean TCHP boiling zone while Upper air conditions look ideal.

Mexico and the Yucatan are probably by far at highest risk from this one given the current set-up has been for a weakness at 60W and a decent upper ridge held in the SE states...
That being said Alex may not be a bad system to end up comparing this one too...though this system may well get going a little faster then that one IMO and have more time before any possible threat to land to strengthen.
THIS is what I've been saying to keep a real close eye on though...because the pattern means its going to hit land somewhere its just a case of where really...

Indeed STS thats the classic La Nina set-up, and given the pattern we've seen I'd put the sort of WNW track into the Yucatan then through into the BoC/S.Gulf towards Mex/Tex as by far the highest possiblity...
No doubts this is a big threat no IMO...though I'm sure its not the only system the Caribbean is going to produce in the next 30-45 days....
