Although there is another wave expected to enhance precipitation this coming week in Florida. :wink:

Tropical Formation Probability

:uarrow: :uarrow: :uarrow: :uarrow:

The area in the Tropical Atlantic between Africa and the Lesser Antilles according to this forecast has a somewhat good probability to cyclone formation.

I was just checking the satellite photos as well and that cluster is looking pretty decent for being that far east. It seems it has some of the best outflow of any tropical waves so far this year.

That is an upper low that has gained convection.But pressures are high in the area and no surface low is seen there.

Our little wave is showing some cyclonic turning near 8n 36w this afternoon and convection seems to greatest in that area.

GFS wants to develop it. See if it stays consistant. Any other models picking up on this yet?

This is the best this central tropical wave has looked so far since it came off Africa. The showers and thunderstorms are starting to wrap around it on all sides. It looks impressive especially this early in the season that far out. This one might have a decent chance to develop into something if conditions are right down the road when it get near the islands. Ill give it a 50/50 chance.

Well, the wave now at 66W crossed through here during the night, with plenty of thunderstorms (some loud) and some decent rain. It's now concern for flash flooding in Puerto Rico.

A DARK and stormy morning indeed! It isn't raining here right now, but went on with lightning and thunder all of last night as that wave went through. One gust, the one that woke me up, was recorded at 37 mph. Looks like PR is still getting the brunt of it as it moves northwest.
Stay off the roads, Luis!

I guess we should be careful here.... all information about the ACTUAL weather conditions in the eastern Caribbean are now to be posted in Weather Attic.

But, what the heck!

Not just observation, Luis. That thread was also where we posted discussions, watches, warnings, sat views, radar, and anything else that is "localized".
