Mecklenburg, don't worry about what's out there at the moment in about a week or so, perhaps 2, you'll have to much more to track...I enjoy it when it's not too busy, because when it gets really busy I can't pull myself away from these board, and I get absolutely nothing done(it's like an obsession)...so think of it as a blessing that's it's slow NOW.... :wink:

I think our quiet period is about to end...theres likely going to be 1, possibly 2 storms out there within the next week.

I agree with the yellow since it's a 48 hour time frame. I'm thinking development within 72 hours is much more likely. Although the conditions are better than before, they are still far from ideal, so I agree with "slow" aspect.

To avoid any confusion about the waves,the title was edited to correspond to what the Tropical Weather Outlook said at their 8 PM release about the 30w disturbed weather area.

Yes the longitude helps, it does get real confusing. Is this the wave the models have been sending W into the Islands, Bahamas, SFL, etc.

Well, here we go. Its always an adventure when the models have somewhat of a consensus.

In this loop is the low that moves up the EC the same one that went through SFL into the Panhandle a few runs ago?

yep.. but lets not forget that it did in the 6z run too.... however, the 6z and the 18z runs are extrapolated from the 0z and the 12z runs respectively....only the 0z and the 12z run have full data input.. 6z and 18z are run off the other 2 runs...

Yes, and the 0z and 12z had it hitting the CONUS while 6z and 18z recurved it.

Well, I'm leaving on Thursday for the states for a month; everything is just about ready to fly away from - prepared for the worst (including it all blowing away? probably not) and hoping for the best...
