Interesting track, probably would have to deal with increasing shear from 96hrs onwards though I'd imagine, that track will probably be one that has some sort of shear for most of the season.

I'm not expecting anything much of this but could see something if it heads west instead down the line.

It seems the steering currents are going to be very weak over the next few days and there is enough weakness to draw this area NW. Hopefully if this system develops there is enough weakness to draw it far enough north to recurve. Many systems have developed in this area and drifted NW and didn't make it far enough to recurve only to get trapped under a building ridge.

Those are the operative words. As a wiseacre once said, “The past does not predict the future.” In other words, what’s been happening ain’t necessarily what’s going to happen.

Looks decent, clearly some spin there. And it just looks to me that if it can stay far enough south in the short term, it could possibly avoid the brunt of the shear axis showing up on the WV loop from that large upper level low well to its NNW. I don't know, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I'm cautiously bullish on this.

Starting to look a little more serious.

Islanders should be watching this, though probably just a period of storms and rain at this point.

I think it's just some D-MAX convection. It will probably all poof by this evening. What LLC? There's no LLC.

It's left over flareups from D-MAX, which occurs in the early morning hours. The flareups began in the early morning hours.
