93L probably will develop and if it does your going to start seeing the outflow shear this current wave sooner or later. Its a nice wave for now and you can't rule it out, esp further west but I'm not thinking development is too likely any time soon...though it probably will be 94L fairly soon IMO.



If this wave continues westward, we might see some slow development as it approaches the carib islands......

Convection on the wane, but definitely a circulation at either mid or lower levels. I don't expect anything rapid, but I think it could start to develop in a couple of days. Still looks to be pushing westward.

Hmmm yeah you can see a circulation there, its quite weak and convection still seems to be connected to the ITCZ on the southern side but probably enough there to warrant an invest in the next 24hrs.

this will be tagged the more west it moves over the next few days IMO....93L is carving into the SAL to the North opening the door...the larger it takes to develop the more a threat to the islands next week....

I'd be quite tempted to invest this area just to see...93L will probably prevent any decent strengthening from occuring soon IMO, which will probably mean a more westerly track is likely.

You're right, goud reasoning and that's why we should keep an eye. Let's wait and see what could happens during the next couple of days.

so far away... so really no reason to run the BAMMs, IMO. The globals are picking up on it already to some extent.

Oh there is no real hurry but it is quite low in latitude and it is starting to look pretty good at the moment, I wouldn't be surprised to see 94L pretty soon to be honest.

I do think it looks to eventually be Earl..maybe a threat for the islands even but, I have my doubts the way Collin and 93L found the weakness at this point.

This one does look like its going to go a good deal further west of 93L, I think if it keeps going the direction it is then there is a good chance of eventual devlopment...

Of course the models may just be going west because they don't develop it.

The models may start to develop it though once it gets closer to the islands...

No mention on the 8 PM TWO. I think that they will wait for convection to come back and persist.

I don't see how this wave it going to curve out to sea, it's so much further south than 93L is right now.

Let's wait and see. Mother Nature is always full of surprises. So before speaking about recurve or not we should continue to monitor it carefully in case of a possible improvement (no mention of the latest 8 PM TWD). For now it's 8-)
