Re: Development in the Caribbean Next Week?
12z FIM develops a full hurricane now. It develops the second wave from the E. Caribbean.

Seems like the global models are latching onto the wave in the far eastern Atlantic. It has just been introduced on the surface analysis plot. The models are not as bullish on Caribbean development for the wave that is approaching the Leewards.
But yes, it's long-range what that FIM model is showing. The FIM also hints at some development of the Leewards wave but has backed off some on what is what showing a few days ago as has the GFS.
You can see both waves here:

Understood, the point is to show the potential and that the GFS, FIM and CMC have been showing for several days now varying degrees of development so it is not just the typical GFS phantom runs you now have three models going back and forth. All I need to see is Euro jump on board and then I will take it seriously.

Re: Development in the Caribbean Next Week?
Unfortunately, I find it impossible to take anything this year seriously. Will believe it when I see it.

Re: Development in the Caribbean Next Week?
This is a model storm at this point and I think this discussion should be in the global models thread.

Re: Development in the Caribbean the Week After Next?
I think after this Saturday morning discussion from the San Juan NWS the thread reopens.
NEXT WAVE
WILL REACH THE AREA EARLY TUE INCREASING THE CHANCES OF SHOWERS.
THIS WAVE WILL STALL OVER THE CNTRL/ERN CARIB SEA MID NEXT WEEK
WHERE A BROAD LOW PRES IS EXPECTED TO FORM POSSIBLY EVEN A
TROPICAL CYCLONE AS AN UPPER LEVEL ANTICYCLONE DEVELOPS ON TOP OF
IT. BROAD LOW/POSSIBLE TROPICAL CYCLONE WILL EITHER MEANDER FOR
SVRL DAYS IN THE CNTRL/ERN CARIB SEA AS SUGGESTED BY LATEST ECMWF
OR LIFT SLOWLY NWD NEXT FRI-SAT PER LATEST GFES ALONG AN INVERTED
TROF FCST TO SET UP ACROSS THE MONA PASSAGE WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
A SIG HEAVY RAINFALL EVENT.
SINCE YESTERDAY...ALL GLOBAL MODELS UNANIMOUSLY NOW A SHOW A
TROPICAL CYCLONE DEVELOPING OVR THE CNTRL/ERN CARIB SEA MID TO
LATE NEXT WEEK BUT DIFFER WHEN EXACTLY WILL DEVELOP AND WHEN IT
WILL LIFT NORTH. POSSIBLE TRACKS RANGE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 62W AND 70W
WITH MOST OF THE CLUSTERING OVR THE MONA PASSAGE.

Climatology only speaks to longterm patterns. Those patterns include instances of anomalies. I wouldn't discount a system developing as progged by the models.

Re: Possible development of Central Atl Wave in the Caribbean?
The models are not registering the 2013 negativeness. Kinda thin as it looks. I'd bet against it.
