I really think this is an area we need to watch out for in the next few days as it head closer to the Caribbean or North of the Caribbean as a couple of models take it. There is a definite spin on this thing out there. If it was not being influenced by dry air we would probably have our next storm by now.

True but is normal for area this time of year. Over the next 2-3 weeks you will see it change. There was one year it didn't. We had no cv storms that year. I can't remmber what year that was. But all the Dry air stayed

I agree with you on that. If the dry air does not change we won't see much from the Cape Verde area. But, I think we have seen in the past that things can change very quickly.

Here is the windshear forecast from the GFS. I try to limit watching it from 72 Hours out but, I see that windshear is forecast to remain low over this area of low pressure.

We know, but they said significant development is not expected. But that probably means some slow development could occur.

The high clouds are being blown off by the shear and the ridges above it is trying to pull it to it. So it looks like the ridge may win. Any thoughts?

but for this time of year, dry air and dust seem to be the norm.... things are starting to change a bit as we reach august.. looks like the azores high will weaken with time and that should allow the shear to weaken in the eastern atlantic and that will blow less dust into the atlantic as well... it seems we are right on schedule for the time of year....

also looks like "storms in nc" stold one of my photos for an avitar!!! lol... J/J
