The Atlantic's MDR is still warm enough and still above average over all.


No doupt! waters always plenty warm this time of the year just about basin for tc. Was just noting the drop in sst's across the basin which i think will play a factor in reduction of storms come ASO. AGAIN does not mean we cant still have a high landfall year.

As far as forward speed, 15-20 mph is a good bet across much of the Central and East Atlantic. Not detrimental by any stretch of the imagination.

What about some cooler sst anomalies in parts of MDR? I agree with SFLcane about CSU going down in numbers as TSR did because of this.

This pix looks a bit over done, it seems to always be extreme.

I can see this as Invest in a window as early as Sunday but no later than Monday.

NOAA site paints a total different picture across the MDR.

I still wouldn't be suprised to see the GFS back off of the idea of developing this in the next few runs. After all its still only July 20th.

SST Anomalies have nothing to do with how many storms form folks. Get that out of your head. If the water is 79-80 degrees, TCs can form and develop. Too much emphasis is placed on SSTs these days.

Another look at the vigorous wave about ready to roll of Africa the GFS thinks will develop. Have to admit, it looks quite intense.

Bear watch in full effect! :D

18Z Navy model has come on board with something, but is a bit slower on developing a low (not even sure if it is the same wave as what the GFS is developing):

SAL affects a system from the EAST. I am not even concerned with what is currently over the Atlantic

The lesser antilles would be first in line if this should develop, but after that is really anyones guess, if the ridge returns north of the islands Florida to the Carolinas need to monitor this in case the ridge erodes near the coast the NEUS could also get hit but these features can and probably will change so we may not know the intensity nor the path until next friday

Well 00Z GFS is out to 48 hours and the low is already defined and showing up so it appears yet another run the GFS will develop this wave:

This could end up where either the GFS is right and this could be a danger next week or it could be completely wrong while most of the other models have nothing or very little
