Have a fabulous trip HQ! Buy a fresh vanilla bean at the market and a glass of wine on Grand Case for me!
And please please try to stay away from computers or televisions, you know if something is coming in, you'll be made aware of it VERY quickly. Enjoy!

Cycloneeye...don't give any credit to the 384 hour GFS.

You know people here that don't know any better will read into it too much. Its not even worth discussing on a storm to storm basis. Long term pattern is fine...but mentioning individual storms that it shows in its fantasy land of 384 hours isn't worth it..

Yes I know that looking at a very long range is like looking for neddles.However what I look for is trends and if other models join. :)

If this model solution at this run verifies it will not affect the lesser antilles islands.

The one about to emerge off Africa in a few hours looks like a monster. I am very curious as to what its gonna do once it hits the Atlantic.

That will be the key when it hits the water.Convection will decrease some as soon it hits water but if it refires again then that will be a good sign that wave has a good future.

Probably die in SAL b/c of its high latitude.

Do you think this one will be the one that will officially start the real Atlantic activity? Example: In 1998 Bonnie formed on Aug20th and that one started the activity for the remainder of the season.
