New Possible System forming in Atlantic

#1 Postby Anonymous » Tue Oct 11, 2005 2:13 am

If you look on the ITCZ (Intertropical Convergence Zone) there appears to be a new Tropical Depression forming. This is what I said the other day...this type of ITCZ I fear the most:::

But if it stays far south there is not so much shear for "Wilma in spe" ;-)

West winds are present but nothing organized.

Wow. We could see Wilma and Alpha named within the next day or two if this east Atlantic system turns into a storm and the Caribbean convection forms into a storm

Steve Lyons was saying last night this could become a TD. But there was no mention of it in the TWO. But Matt's right these systems in the Atlantic have a had harder time sustaining themselves, no matter how impressive they've looked.

Isn't this the area that is embedded in the Saharan dust? It looks good but does it have any chance because of the dust even if it steers clear of the shear? Any thoughts on the potential? I think its a long shot.

Speaking just for our island and our sister island, Culebra, we wish to extend an invitation to these storms to head a tad bit north.

Say, fish country.

Well, not being mentioned in the TWO doesn't seem to mean a whole lot recently (Vince was mentioned in the TWO until he had an eye!)

The NHC stated in their discussion that the Atlantic was favorable, but very late in the season. From what I could tell, they didn't indicate much in the way of immediate development.

it looks like the wave is organizing, shear is low, though a bit further north it gets unfavorable

You have to be careful about getting too excited, since endless numbers of waves that have been so-called "organizing" or "strengthening" or "looking very good" have poofed. Shear has been numerous at times, so we will have to see if it truly persists or organizes before getting a little, possibly, TOO excited. Still, it needs watching, potentially.

According to some of the models something will form from the broad low pressures in the carribean and head towards the Northeast. Just where they don't need the rain:

Then again, look at the huge number that HAVE survived this year.

Is this an invest? Because it should be, looks pretty good, and if it stays south enough, it juuuuust might survive.

I doubt it will survive but it is persistent, alive for a couple of days now

Yeah, a fairly low chance of survival, but it should still be an invest.

The models do seem to have a lot of faith in this wave developing. I guess time will tell.
