one thing to think about is that if it does not develop before getting to the islands and entering the Eastern Caribbean, the chances it will develop go drastically down based on climatology - the Eastern Caribbean is known to be a graveyard for waves that can't get going farther east.
Just something to think about - although I think this one will develop just before getting into the Eastern Caribbean so it won't matter

Where does he get some of his forecasts from? Nothing I have seen indicates shear
Some of the models do forecast another upper low in the GOM at same time as 97L is scheduled to "possibly" enter the GOM. So maybe that is what he is foreseeing. I'm sure he did his homework (like everyone else who's a Met) before making a statement like that.

Ok, I saw the broadcast. All he said was that there is CURRENTLY some SW shear in the Carribean, and that we'll have to see if that persists. He didn't say that this would spell the end for this system. Only that the shear is one of the things he'll be monitoring. He actually said that he'll have to watch this one.
His broadcasts are almost always disarming... that's just his style. Seems that he's less of an alarmist after going with non-stop coverage for Lilly... a storm that ended up well to our west in a weakened state. He caught some flack for that. Just a guess.

Wouldn't it be funny if 97L didn't even make it into the GOM and threaten U.S. mainland. Then all of worrying would have been for nothing.

Ok I am kind of confused here. NHC and other mets are stating that shear is abating but, looking at this shear analysis from CIMSS site there is pretty good shear to it's north.

Well...let's be honest...if it falls apart overnight...they will cancel the flight....even with those words missing.
