the biggest worry for the next week is if anyone will not have died from boredom by watching this week's Tour de France stages. Tropical development... well... lets just say it is way down the list of worries

Its fiction, but the 18Z GFS brings the system into the mid-atlantic after it brushes the carolina coast in 10 days. Looks like at some the point the persistent east trough lifts out and bermuda ridge builds in nudging the system to the west. Of course, the GFS has for about the last 2-3 weeks insisted on building the Bermuda High only to revert in later runs to more east coast troughiness.

Both the wave around 33 west and the one behind it look pretty solid. With the GFS and EURO hinting at development of the wave in front, I think it has a decent chance, but it's still early in the year.

Well, it looks pretty good right now but over the past several years I've been fooled way too many times by juicy looking systems out by Africa. But with nothing else really going on, I guess it's something to watch.

00z CMC

The Canadian model gets into this,but takes a different track than GFS,EURO.It tracks to south of Puerto Rico and slams into Hispanola.

By the way,look at the pics above in this page,how convective is that area South of the CV islands.Instead of convection weakening after the exit from Africa,it has gained.

The second wave closer to AF does have more organization.

Yeah that is interesting. The 00Z ECMWF moves it much more west now just north of the leewards/Hispaniola/DR. Then as a tropical wave/weak low into the Bahamas and then Southern FL. In fact looking at the Geopotential 500 hPa, it builds back in the Bermuda High pretty strongly as soon as the big trough lifts out at 168 hours.

It just shows that the ridge/trough setup 7+ days out can definitely change. It's likely going to keep changing. Of course there is only a small chance anything develops in the first place, the best we can hope for.
