SE Fla to watch TD #5

[fci]

It may not even survive another 24 hours but if it does; SE Fla is set to watch what happens.

Forecast Discussion from Miami NWS at 2:00 PM:

Discussion...subtropical high will remain east of Florida,
extending across much of the Atlantic. Moist southeast flow
rotating around the ridge will keep conditions humid and warm
through the forecast period.


Morning Atlantic showers developing into afternoon mainly
interior and West Coast thunderstorms will occur most every day as
diurnal and mesoscale influences dominate.


The most interesting part of the week long forecast is what will
happen with Tropical Depression Five which is located way out in
the tropical Atlantic 2500 miles southeast of Miami. NHC track
forecast places the potential tropical cyclone somewhere in the
vicinity of Hispaniola by Saturday. If this system develops,
follows that path, and survives its trek, we might have something
to closely watch toward the weekend. Those are a lot of if's
though, and there is plenty of time to think about it later.

lots of ifs

I read that it mentions the subtropical high will be strongly in place. So if TD5 takes the southern route that means the ridge will block it from coming north out of the NW Caribbean and impacting FL. But who knows. None of us are magicians that can pull rabbits out of a hat....

What is going on with this think about it later stuff? I'm hearing a lot of this recently.

Maybe they figure there is no point beating themselves to death over it until there is a reasonable chance there will actually be something to worry about.

I think it's called denial...lol

If I remember correctly, everyone was remarking on how low a latitude Ivan formed, and this TD formed about the same lat. I hope history isn't repeating!
