It seems that the 06Z GFS model may be on the right road as climatologically speaking, the western Caribbean is the most likely spot for tropical cyclone development.

The Canadian has been honking strong hurricanes for just about every run for the past month or so, and so far not one has materialized.

Looking at the upper air forecast of the NAM a mere 30 hours out is hardly the same as relying on it for predicting tropical storm development.
