You forgot the disclaimer. A lot of people on here live down there.

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L
Yup, we in the Windwards have been put on alert for the possibility of strong thunderstorms on Sunday. While the E Caribbean and Leeward islands may benefit from some rain, we down here really don't need it. We've been waterlogged enough with persistent rain for several months now. Whatever happens, it's really interesting to have something to grab my attention this early...

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L
I know that TnT (that's Trinidad and Tobago) has had its fair share of rain but Bim (Barbados) could definitely do with some. So, lot's of showers and thunderstorms from 97L sounds good to meFireBird wrote:Yup, we in the Windwards have been put on alert for the possibility of strong thunderstorms on Sunday.

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L
The thing about the tropics is that it never ceases to amaze and surprise me. It's unpredictable nature is something that I will be enamored with for the rest of my life. I wouldn't write anything off, especially a tropical wave. It will continue to flare up and die down over the course of it's life.

A TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED ABOUT 750 MILES EAST OF THE WINDWARD
ISLANDS IS MOVING WESTWARD AT ABOUT 10 TO 15 MPH. THE ASSOCIATED
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS CHANGED LITTLE IN ORGANIZATION DURING THE
PAST SEVERAL HOURS. HOWEVER...ANY DEVELOPMENT OF THIS DISTURBANCE
SHOULD BE SLOW TO OCCUR DUE TO THE PROXIMITY OF DRY AIR. THIS
SYSTEM HAS A LOW CHANCE...20 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL
CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS.

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L
Late last night all the strong precipitation dissipated , however this morning one can see the the system is firing up again . we would have to wait and see how much will it develop before it reaches the islands .

If there is nothing before... then just ask

Down to 10% at 8 AM EDT TWO.

MILES EAST OF THE WINDWARD ISLANDS HAS DIMINISHED SINCE YESTERDAY.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ARE NOT CONDUCIVE FOR SIGNIFICANT

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L
Agree Aric, it will refire today. I know some other people think this has no shot including a pro met on here.
I believe 97 still has a pulse! Conditions are not that bad ahead of this system.

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L
Never said "no shot" at all, just no shot in 48 hours, which is what the NHC forecasts. I said 0 chance within 48 hrs a day or two ago. Any disturbance has some chance of developing during its lifetime. For this disturbance, that chance may be 2-3%. But chances of development within 48 hours remain near zero. It's on life support. Pulse very weak and fading. Look elsewhere for Ernesto (and not those storms in the Gulf).

Yep, cycloneye, I agree. This has degenerated to an open wave.

NEVER, EVER SAY NEVER in the tropics and weather in general, and most importantly, with life itself!!
