I think Beryl should come and be a TS Like Alberto but stall over west central Florida and dump us 15 inches of rain that we need. What are your opinions on strength of the system if it was to develop
While I appreciate your desire for a drought-buster type of rain event; we are on vacation in O-Town starting Sunday and do not want a wash out.
So, if it is OK with you; how about waiting until after July 2nd for your deluge???
Because there are pool chairs and roller coasters awaiting us!!!!

Hey, we were there when Alberto paid his visit. Just get yourselves some Mickey ponchos, an umbrella, and some good water shoes (we used the Land's End ones) and go ahead with your plans!!

My modular home is scheduled to leave south Georgia on Wednesday and arrive here on Dauphin Island Wednesday evening...it will sit on the ground (close to the Gulf) on Wednesday night and will go up on pilings (14 feet high) via crane on Thursday...I'd love any opinions on whether this system will still be around on Wednesday (either over south Georgia or in the Gomex)...If my house is flooded while it's on the ground, insurance will NOT pay for it (because we're in a flood zone and it's not yet elevated). Thanks for any input...I'm not quite ready to stress-out...but I'm getting close.

From ACCUWEATHER....
The Storm near the Bahamas Could Turn Tropical.
By Meteorologist Matthew Rinde.
A system to the north of the Bahamas may bear watching over the next couple of days. A storm in the area will attempt to become more tropical in nature during the next couple of days. Shear continues to affect the storm's strengthening, but this should relax later Friday. At this point it will be the best chance for the storm to change to more tropical features. Either way this system is expected to move toward the coast and inland later this weekend into early next week. Tropical moisture is feeding into the overall flow of the weather pattern. This means that heavy rain is likely across much of the eastern U.S. into next week

i would be more concerned about a future wind event and your modular home then a weak low in the bahamas right now.

Yes. It sure is a change. Although the last NHC comments were a change as well even though some did not think so.

Matthew Newman, Sr. Meteorologist, The Weather Channel
Upper-level winds in the Atlantic Basin are rendering any tropical cyclone genesis unlikely over the next day or so. That being said, a cluster of showers is currently just north of the central Bahamas. There is no indication of a surface low at this time and surface pressures are high. This is simply an upper-level low, and winds aloft continue to be hostile for any further development. The area is expected to drift toward the coast of the Southeast over the next few days. This could bring some much-needed rainfall to the region.
Meanwhile, the eastern Pacific is also free from any organized tropical activity.
TWC's Statement made this morning regarding the system.

Don't forget the last part of the NHC's statement. They basically say the same thing as TWC:
UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE CURRENTLY NOT
FAVORABLE AND ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT...IF ANY...SHOULD BE SLOW TO
OCCUR.
