WOW - looks like there is some potential with this wave, has the TUTT diminished? :eek:

I think the board is going to get jumping with this thread!

TPC/NHC is definitely becoming more interested in this wave for reasons we don't know yet - perhaps they think conditions will become favorable over the next couple of days

Interesting ...

This is the wave that the CMC has been insisting on developing somewhat and taking towards the Carolinas.

So far, the other globals just carry it through the greater Antilles as a very weak wave.

Yes, we were discussing that on the other thread. If the other models at least recognized this low pressure that has existed for over 24 hrs, then I might put more confidence in their lack of development. :wink:

another member suggested that SSTs are supposed to become more favorable for development in 1-2 days, suggesting a possible refiring of convection. I would have to agree with that looking at the latest SST maps..

I think this wave has the most potential this season. This could be our first hurricane IMO.

In 72 hrs. it should be approaching P.R. and after that it could be a threat to the SE United states in 4-6 days! By this upcoming weekend we could be talking about a possible landfall.

If this stays weak, which it appears its doing, it could track into the Caribbean.

latest SAT imagery showing a well-defined circulation, I assume at the low-levels with some convection starting to refire. Looks like it has beat the SAL and will also be getting away from it as it moves more West:

Aside from the CMC, there's really not much to see - like I said the CMC closes off a low and brings it towards the Carolinas:

The GFS and Euro just propagate a very weak wave westward.

For sure, 80 degrees is pretty cool. But water's very warm over here near us!

I think it has a shot if the shear stays low, 10-15 kts or less. The shear is what has killed these weak SAL systems so far as they have tracked westward. But as we approach August the conditions improve. I'll be interested to see how this looks as it affects the islands and further west into the Carib. or Atlantic.

I think we'll see mention of this wave in a TWO today, maybe as soon as the 11:30AM TWO but maybe not until later tonight.

I can't imagine them not mentioning it in 11:30, since it's already been mentioned in recon. In fact, I think we'll see invest sometime today.

Pressure has been steady all morning at the bouy located at 14.5n-46.0w.The winds haved been from the NE for the most part meaning that the low has not passed that longitud yet.
