ATL: Invest 97L in Central Atlantic

Re: ATL: Invest 97L in East Atlantic
I do hope that it doesn't enter the Caribean. I came across this blog bc we are sailing out of Galveston Sunday and go to Jamaica, Caymen, and Cozmel. Just wanting good weather and waves for the trip. In reading and watching Invest 94/TSDolly and now Hurricane Dolly.....I have found a new hobby. This stuff is very interesting to me. I am a teacher/coach here in the Ft worth area and see myself learning about all this tropical weather on my spare time. It is interesting, but in no means want anyone hurt. My family has been affected by many canes and TS in living around Galveston for years. Look forward to the times. Thanks

The following post is NOT an official forecast and should not be used as such. It is just the opinion of the poster and may or may not be backed by sound meteorological data. It is NOT endorsed by any professional institution including storm2k.org For Official Information please refer to the NHC and NWS products.
I've got a close eye on this one. Can't see it doing anything for the next 2 or 3 days but the Azores high will push it southwest and there is a good chance I feel it can be a hurricane, POSSIBLY a major though I wouldn't bank on that. Unfortunately I also doubt it will be a fish, it's possible but the Azores high could push it south enough that by the time it recurves it will still affect the Leewards and the PR area.

The system doesn't look too impressive right now. Most of the models predict it to be a weak system. But if it does strengthen into a strong storm, it will probably go out to sea since it will most likely find a weakness in the ridge where it is now. If it was further south, it could have been a threat because it would probably develop into a strong system in the warmer waters further south. The NHC doesn't seem to have as much confidence in the system anymore as it used to over Africa.

Impressive or not, it's just way too far north to be anything but fish down the road.
(There's been maybe one or two storms in the whole of records which have tracked over the CVs and still managed to hit anything else other than Bermuda or New Foundland.)

The CMC makes it a stronger tropical cyclone now when it turns near Bermuda.

If it doesn't form into anything for the next 120 hours or similar, how could that be true? I haven't seen too many tropical waves just go north into the middle of the ocean for no reason.

Re: ATL: Invest 97L in East Atlantic
If this investment stays small and doesn't intensify too much, this system could in fact move SW for a little bit, and then head W. If this happens this could follow the path of 94L/TS Dolly/Hurricane Dolly.

A little bit of convection, almost in full view on the floater http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/flt/t4/sloop-avn.html, and it has almost made it to 26 degree SST.

A well-developed tropical low, that emerged from the African coast just east of the Cape Verde Islands, is also being monitored. The low has the potential for further development as it moves westward over the next couple of days.
