You can certainly gloat if that happens, because right now your the only one seeing that way. Its an open wave..

It has been really interesting to see how the system has been trying to organize every night, but during the day all goes downhill.

They've since pulled it, but this site had model verifications for Irene for each period (00/06/12/18Z) through the previous 120 hours. I've forgotten which day it was (it was before the recurve fully materialized), but there was one period where CLIPER's 96 hour forecast nailed the position of Irene (while nothing else was notably close).

Of course, blind men playing darts can throw bulls-eyes every once in a while...

It's important to consider the system's personality. This one was always weak, but we had a good flare-up after a long down phase last night. When Irene tracked west in similar conditions she also showed steady simmering tendencies.

This one could be dissipating, and the Caribbean depth doesn't aid it either. But wait to see if it fires another flare-up before writing it off...

ok - if you look at the visible here rather than using the real close up you can better see where the circulation is (or I see it at least). I see the circulation at approximately 18.5, 58.8. Click on it as a single image and pin point the area then go back and do an 8 image loop.

XTD 10 is going to have a really tough time coming up. Its about to run smack into the upper level westerly winds which are currently out ahead of it. It will be interesting to say the least, but I think it's not going to develop any time soon. The central and southwestern Carribean flare ups do look a little interesting.

That might be an upper air circulation maybe I would not venture far enough to call it at the surface.

Well, recon has found 24kt winds but no circulation, the one thing that we (I) thought that it held on to.

The low to the northwest actually has better convection now, appears to be firing up on the color-enhanced floater #1 loop...

They're done now, those were the top winds.
All the wind was 117-145 degrees, no circ.

Sure there is. Luis and I have been talking about that big wave about to move off Africa in a few hours to perhaps tomorrow morning. If that can hold its convection while it emerges into the Atlantic that would be the next one to watch.
