Looks like things remained deader than a door knob across the tropical Atlantic until…you guessed it, the 20th of August. The Gulf of Mexico woke up slightly sooner with Bret. In all honestly, I think the Gulf and Caribbean are going to wake up before the MDR does if it does at all, and I’m going to personally be watching for in close developments for the time being cause I have a feeling that’s how things are going to start to get going…assuming they do at all.
William Gray of CSU fame didn't just pick 8/20 out of thin air to ring his bell. Every year is different of course but that 8/20 date is pretty rock solid on when conditions seemingly flip over night from not conducive or marginally conducive to go time.
Well, just as Gray rings the bell the eps long range is trying to show a pattern change with the wave breaking going away and more favaorable pattern.
Watch loop till the end.
