no offence to you, but you really seem to hate every single system that has formed so far and really make the mood sad feeling. :cry:


I agree. We understand that you don't see how this season is going to match all the numbers and how the conditions in the Atlantic are unfavorable right now for development. You have stated that point multiple times. It gets old after a while.

Station 41101
Meteo France
Location: 14.6N 56.201W
08/11/2010 1500 UTC
Winds: E (100°) at 4.1 kts
Significant Wave Height: 3.0 ft
Dominant Wave period: 6 sec
Atmospheric Pressure: 29.94 in and rising
Air Temperature: 82.6 °F
Dew Point: 74.3 °F
Water Temperature: 84.9 °F


this buoy is in the middle of the disturbance and pressure is rising. Looks good on the satellite images but that could be a mirage.

Looks good but once again the low levels look real poor, and as we have seen quite a bit if there is no low level help then any slight downward trend will make the system poof.

Looking better today, maybe an invest later this evening? Need to see if the convection poofs or not. NHC may up the chances of development for the next TWO perhaps.

It quite possibly will be an invest soon if it holds this current presentation...models aren't at all keen on this and they've done very well so far...

pressure fall are going to take time.. remember the convection just started firing this evening and for something to work down to the surface of course takes time. there is a tropical wave associated with this disturbance so it needs to be watched thats for sure..

even a weak wave like this one that is so far south, the t-storm activity is going to somehow miss the Leewards it appears. What a MAJOR trough digging into the Western and Central Atlantic...looks like this wave is very fishy....

HINT: Look at what the NAM has been doing with this...misses the islands to the NE by a good margin and gets sucked into the Atlantic graveyard along with 93L.

It may increase your chance to 20% but I can not be anything beyond.

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER HAS ISSUED THE LAST ADVISORY ON
TROPICAL DEPRESSION FIVE...WHICH HAS DEGENERATED INTO A REMNANT LOW
PRESSURE AREA OVER THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO. THIS LOW COULD
STILL PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS AND STRONG GUSTY WINDS IN SQUALLS
TO PORTIONS OF THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO COAST TONIGHT AND EARLY
THURSDAY. REFER TO STATEMENTS FROM LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE
FORECAST OFFICES FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. THE LOW IS EXPECTED
TO MOVE INLAND ALONG THE NORTH-CENTRAL GULF COAST BY EARLY THURSDAY
AND THERE IS A LOW CHANCE...NEAR 0 PERCENT...OF THIS SYSTEM
BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS.

A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM LOCATED ABOUT 850 MILES NORTHEAST OF THE
NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS IS PRODUCING MINIMAL SHOWER ACTIVITY AT
THIS TIME. UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE NOT CONDUCIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT AND
THERE IS A LOW CHANCE...20 PERCENT...OF THIS SYSTEM BECOMING A
TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS AS IT MOVES TOWARD THE
NORTH AND NORTH-NORTHEAST OVER THE ATLANTIC.

AN AREA OF DISORGANIZED CLOUDINESS AND SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH A
TROPICAL WAVE IS LOCATED ABOUT 250 MILES EAST OF THE LESSER
ANTILLES. SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT OF THIS DISTURBANCE IS NOT
EXPECTED AS IT MOVES GENERALLY WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT ABOUT 15 MPH.
THERE IS A LOW CHANCE...10 PERCENT...OF THIS SYSTEM BECOMING A
TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS.

I'm still a little bullish. It held together well today. It appears to be heading WNW toward the general direction of the shear.........but by the same token I'm not sure that shear will be there in the same intensity by the time it really gets to that area. It looks to me like things are changing.....looking at the WV loop, I don't think that particular ULL is going to be a player for that much longer.

And just like that, the Atlantic was silenced. The Atlantians stirred and the Kraken awoke from his mighty sleep. (statement partially fictionalized.)

If the TUTT wasn't there this system might have a chance but the official estimate for development is 0% with the shear ahead. I did notice some increased convection at the top and bottom of the TUTT that may indicate the two highs are trying to bridge but hopefully the shear will remain long enough to blow this wave apart.
