Convection is starting to form again near the center and looks like it will try a go at this I remember the amazing beginnings of Chris (forgetting the ending of him near Cuba.) but he was almost free of convection then it just blew up and he became a depression it was nice to watch. Maybe a repeat type of formation in the west Caribbean though.

If this recurves into Florida, I'll be looking forward to some long needed rain.

THE CARIBBEAN SEA...
A NEARLY STATIONARY 1008 MB LOW PRES SYSTEM IS IN THE SW
CARIBBEAN CENTERED N OF PANAMA NEAR 11N79W. A BURST OF MODERATE
CONVECTION FORMED EARLY THIS MORNING IN THE NRN SEMICIRCLE. THIS
ACTIVITY HAS EXPANDED AND PERSISTED FOR THE LAST SEVERAL HOURS
AND NOW EXTENDS WITHIN 150 NM N OF THE CENTER. OVERALL...THIS
DISTURBANCE HAS BECOME A LITTLE BETTER ORGANIZED AND IT WILL
CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED AS SOME SLOW DEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE
OVER THE NEXT DAY OR SO. THIS SYSTEM IS NOW DETACHED FROM THE
PERSISTENT FRONTAL BOUNDARY IN THE AREA WHICH IS STATIONARY FROM
HAITI ACROSS ERN JAMAICA TO NEAR 14N80W.
The above is from the 7:05 AM EST discussion.
25/1145 UTC 11.2N 78.4W T1.0/1.0 95L -- Atlantic Ocean
First T numbers from SSD for 95L.

At least,what this does is to ramp up a little bit the activity at the talking tropics forum,and have a finale of the season that the peeps will have something to talk about.

I think this system has quite a chance of becoming Joyce over the next 36 hours and a fair chance of strengthening to strong tropical storm status, at least. Whoever said goodbye to 2006...
An established upper-level anticyclone for this time of year is expected to persist over the SW Caribbean over the next couple of days, shifting toward the NW Caribbean during the middle of the week. SSTs are definitely warm enough in the W Caribbean and there is plenty of moisture in and around the premises of this system. The major factor that will affect its development will be its position in relation to the upper-level anticyclone. If the system manages to stay in weak steering currents, it will likely strengthen beyond what we could imagine for this time of year. If I were living in Nicaragua, Honduras, Costa Rica, etc. I would be watching this system VERY closely and start preparing for a possible landfall of a significant tropical cyclone. Would Joyce be the big name of 2006? We don't know yet, but the answer might be known by later this week.
On an interesting note, if this earns a name, I believe this would be the second latest a tropical cyclone has developed in the Caribbean. The latest of course was the out-of-season development of Odette in 2003.

Though development is not impossible, it won't likely go anywhere near Florida with the massive Arctic outbreak that will spread across the entire Gulf (and Florida) next week. There's nothing to steer it to Florida before the front hits on Friday. Oh, here's a model plot I made:

Per wxman's post, the next cold weather outbreak for Florida wouldn't be until at least next Friday or Saturday:
http://weather.unisys.com/gfsx/loop/gfsx_500p_loop.html
funny that the NWS had predicted "warmer and wetter" conditions for Florida this winter, due to El Nino conditions - so far, it's been colder and dryer...

Quite true, but between now and Friday there's nothing to steer this disturbance northward.
