Northwest Carib. Disturbance
Looks more impressive than our system in the Bahamas. Any thoughts tonight as it moves WNlW or NW.

NHC indicates in the TWD graphic that a Tropical Wave is approaching that area...

TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 82W/83W S OF 20N MOVING W 15 KT. THIS
WAVE SHOULD MOVE INTO CENTRAL AMERICA TONIGHT ENHANCING THE
CHANCES OF RAIN OVER THAT AREA. SCATTERED MODERATE TO STRONG
CONVECTION IS OVER NICARAGUA...HONDURAS...AND THE W CARIBBEAN
SEA FROM 11N-19N BETWEEN 82W-86W. A DIFFLUENT PATTERN ALOFT IS
ENHANCING THIS CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY.

I Agree

I have seen it happen before.
I agree that the northern part of the wave may split off heading NW while the southern part heads west in the EPAC. We see in the next few days I guess.

No, I don't think so, but the waves that are down there now may be a sign of what to expect entering the gulf and meeting up with the trough split he is expecting next week.SouthFloridawx wrote:Extremeweatherguy wrote:If JB is right, then a trough split combined with a more north-tracked wave train will lead to the possibility of something developing toward the middle to later part of next week in the Gulf (west of 90W).
Is that the trough he is refering to?

Here is the 72 hr. surface forecast. I think the trough JB may be talking about is the one dipicted in the central Gulf (or it could be the one further west over TX as it moves east?). Also, take a look at the two impressive waves on the map...one in the Caribbean and one east of the islands. Looks like as this all meets up in 4-8 days, there could be a chance of development.

Is this the wave that went through the leewards about five days ago. Looks like it has really flared up. Thankfully it is near land. Water is warm could be a epac storm. ASP surf tour is near Puerto Escondido right now hopefully they continue to get excellent weather. http://www.aspworldtour.com/ripcurlpro/ The waves for the tournament have been incredible courtisey of a south pac winter storm.

If this does make its way into the EPAC without getting detereorated, could it have the chance to become a TD or possible TS?
