TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
1130 AM EDT TUE OCT 10 2006

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

A NON-TROPICAL AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS CENTERED A COUPLE HUNDRED
MILES SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF CAPE HATTERAS NORTH CAROLINA. DEVELOPMENT
OF THIS SYSTEM INTO A TROPICAL OR SUBTROPICAL CYCLONE IS NOT
EXPECTED.

A TROPICAL WAVE A COUPLE HUNDRED MILES EAST OF THE WINDWARD ISLANDS
IS GENERATING THUNDERSTORMS AND GUSTY WINDS. THIS ACTIVITY WILL
SPREAD WESTWARD THROUGH THE LESSER ANTILLES OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF
DAYS...BUT DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM...IF ANY...IS EXPECTED TO BE
SLOW TO OCCUR.

ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH
WEDNESDAY.

Based on current steering patterns, PR/VI need to watch this system:

Might be slow, but it's the best game in town right now. We'll see how it persists.

One of those Atlantic waves survived and is showing weak formation just east of the Windwards. I would be up on this if it wasn't for the fact that 2006 has shreded every single one of these in this area besides Ernesto.

But it does look to be organizing around 12N-57.5W If I'm reading 2006 correctly, it should lack moisture and dissipate as it enters the Caribbean - but who can ever say for sure?

Shearing seems to have gone down a bit. 5-10kts.

Its actually in one of the only places in the entire Atlantic where shear is favorable. This may just sneak under the table and surprise us.

It may be possible to develop as shear continues to decrease in the vicinity.

However looking at the upper level wind forecast from GFS i'm not quite sure it will survive.

Based on the shear tendency map, it has favorable conditions through most of the Caribbean through the W Caribbean.
