OH, wouldn't that be interesting?! Some weak surface low likely reflecting in the mid levels as well, just East of the N. Bahamas... and with a fairly strong mid level ridge to the north and northeast of the Lessor Antilles. "If" such played out, then the big questions would be what might the downstream troughing or ridging out west be, what if any East Coast trough remains, and especially whether that big 'ol Mid-Atlantic 500 mg High is moving/building westward - or stationary thus projecting any storm to its south to bend NW around its periphery?? Beware "bridging high pressure ridges".... It really is wild how out of character 96L's present development, appearance, location, and present models all appear, in the over-all context of the record El Nino, Atlantic surface high pressures, and recent dry air. While it all might likely regress to its prior state, that might not occur for at least a few days, week, or even two.
