Sorry, but since when the first systems have been an indication of the future systems to come?

That shows the current Sat derived intensity as being 25 knots, with current intensity at 35 knots (or 2.5).

Between that, QS showing nothing more than 25 knots, and current sat trends/appearance, 25 knots seems most likely, with that even possibly being generous.

Well considering it's mid-August and we haven't yet had a storm, and our first legitimate candidate is getting ripped apart right before our eyes and may not make it...

Of course, it's impossible to know how this season will turn out. I hate to say it only takes 1, but, you know...

If it is less than 25 kt, they'd probably declare it an open wave.

Hopefully this one will dissipate so we can focus on the real threat out there.

Still holding at 30kts which is a little surprising I think given the apperence.

Wxman57, I think there is no doubt that once we get an invest up all the attention will flood to that system...that has a makings of a 500 page plus type storm to me...ho hum! :roll:

the system that just emerged off of africa has some of the most respected...and conservative (as in not quick to jump on every rainshower over dakar) amateur and pro met posters, making some pretty strong forecasts in terms of a potential major hurricane traversing the atlantic. There is model consistency to back these claims. For those who have spent many seasons on this board, our ears do perk up when certain posters...many of whom are pro mets....start writing about systems as they have with this new one.

now back to td 2...

Right behind TD2, its a big wave that all the models are developing and has the makings of a big threat to land down the road.

or at least a threat to developing into a major.....the posts that have gotten my attention are not from posters who are going to make landfall predictions that far out....but a major gaining steam and at least heading on some degree of westerly course is scary enough. Just from reading various blogs from mets and posts from Derek on this board....a feeling that i have not felt at all this season about anything has made a return to me. not thinking any location or anything like that...just a bowling ball rolling down the atlantic....again, there are always doomsday claims and major 'pronouncements' on this board....but when certain folks starting talking about a threat of a major heading west, they absolutely get my attention. These are not 'tabloid' posters.

:uarrow:
Well I did expect it to open back up into a wave and it appears it may just do so --- and not impact anybody.

i'm concentrating on the GFS wave still.

Ouch, shear moved convection to the SW and rapidly dissipated it.
