I wonder why all these models seems so far north?miamicanes177 wrote:12Z track and intensity forecasts:

Maybe is as a result of the upper level low that is racing toward the southeast at the same speed as Invest 91L

It looks like the stronger it gets, the more westerly the mid to uper-level steering currents. Of course, I'm only going by what the GFS is predicting.

Although structure has improved and mid-level to upper-level shear over the system has decreased, convective activity is still a bit too meager for an upgrade to a depression. The system is also somewhat shallow in general.
Based on low-level to mid-level steering, a west to west-northwest path through 60 hours or so appears likely...

This system is heading for an area of more favorable Upper-Mid level shear it will be able to fire up some convection.

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...
A WELL-DEFINED AREA OF LOW PRESSURE LOCATED ABOUT 1275 MILES EAST OF
THE SOUTHERN WINDWARD ISLANDS IS MOVING WESTWARD AT 15 TO 20 MPH.
ALTHOUGH THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS CURRENTLY LIMITED...
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS APPEAR SOMEWHAT FAVORABLE FOR FURTHER
DEVELOPMENT AND A TROPICAL DEPRESSION COULD FORM LATER TODAY OR
TOMORROW.
A NON-TROPICAL LOW IS LOCATED ABOUT 700 MILES WEST-SOUTHWEST OF THE
AZORES. SHOWER ACTIVITY WITH THIS SYSTEM IS DISORGANIZED AND
DEVELOPMENT...IF ANY...IS EXPECTED TO BE SLOW TO OCCUR.

I'm sure, as others have mentioned, that the lack of convection is the reason for there being no upgrade. Other than that, the organizational structure seems pretty solid ... just need persistent convection for 12-24 hours over the center to get the TD go ahead. As for future path past a coupel days out, far too many variables as far as I'm concerned. Generally W to WNW for the foreseeable future -- then we'll just ahve to see.

We'll start to see more convection associated with this system a little later today and overnight tonight as this is moving towards a more favorable environment as indicated by the NHC and the my post above. This system has encountered some Mid-Upper Level wind shear and as a result has kept the convection around the LLC to a minimum or off to the west. I believe as this moves farther west we'll see that convection we need start to kick off.
