Doesn't look like a wave anymore at 700mb and 850mb vorticity has improved a lot since this morning.

Anti-cyclone is sitting directly on top of the LLC.

Looks like it flared some nice OTs to the north of the LLC in the last hour with a good cirrus canopy.

Looks like it is currently an asymmetric warm-core.

PV anomaly is mid-level and relatively weak.

For those of you who are reading this thread and wondering "what the heck is a PV anamoly?" ... it is a Potential Vorticity anamoly.

In other words, what GCANE is suggesting is that 93L had a mid-level center of vorticity and is relatively weak. There are no signs yet of a low-level center or upper level vorticity.

Thanks Portastorm for the explanation.

An ULL to the NE at 25N 46W seems to be consolidating and could help enhance the development of a poleward outflow channel.

I think the general agreement on the track solution is pretty good now, as Wxman57 said the upper high is very strong still and showing few signs of weakening for at least the next week which should be enough to shunt the system westwards into CA/Mexico in the end.

Doubt 93L has much of a chance to organize with it moving as fast as it is now....maybe in a couple of days it can get its act together......MGC

Way too soon to say with any hint of confidence where final landfall might be over a week from today on a system that has not even developed. The NAM and Nogaps are more northerly and the other models are more southerly. The other models can pull the rug out of that southerly track just as quickly as they put it in. First thing that has to occur is we need a storm to develop.

To be fair...those two models you quoted are rubbish :P

The models are pretty strong in agreement at the moment on a CA threat and maybe into the BoC.

Well the Yucatan is where the model consensus is right now, not CA but yeah I doubt the U.S sees much from this one. If you are looking for a scary U.S problem go to the Pouch 17L thread in Talking tropics.

Sorry when I say CA threat I tend to lump in the Yucatan, esp southern portions of it in with that "CA" banding.

I suspect the models will shift a touch southwards, track IMO like ECM is probably a good shout right now unless it pulls a little surprise out of the hat.
