yeah...it will probably stay on a west to wnw course and cause a world of trouble down the road if it all plays out as I am seeing....why?...Central Atlantic Ridge would cause system to steadily strengthen in a favorable upper level environment...SAL will likely diminish..but not dissipate....diminish just enough for this wave to eventually develop down the road...

SAL has been with us all year. I suppose it will be with us the rest of the season too, as there is no evidence of the contrary....

I think this exact reason is why folks are giving up on the season....

This happens with QSCAT imagery sometimes...they don't do a very good job at telling users which time is valid.
The time at the top is the time of the latest update for all imagery (I think). The time of the actual image displayed is 19:30Z (in the little numbers in purple way at the bottom)...so the image looks like it's 1632Z but it's actually yesterday before the wave emerged.
I have made the same mistake before...

OK, so that was an old QS pass. SAL is perfectly normal this time of year... and the fact that this wave has propogated so quickly off to the west is indicative of future outbreaks being less potent and long-lasting.

No, we've had plenty of LLC's but with little or no convection over them to develop.
Any examples?
93L
What I meant to really say that we really have a problem more with convection developing than LLC forming.

plenty of convection....too much shear....had nothing to do with convection....

If you follow these invests throughout the entire time, alot of them have problem sustaining their convection. Even the ones that did developed lost their convection due either shear or dry air.
