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.

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.

it was mentioned in the 5:30 TWO!!!
We know, but they said significant development is not expected. But that probably means some slow development could occur.

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
