Re: Tropical Wave east of Lesser Antilles
A tropical wave located several hundred miles east of the Windward
Islands is producing a large area of disorganized showers and
thunderstorms. Development, if any, of this system is expected to be
slow to occur while the wave moves westward at 10 to 15 mph.
Regardless of development, heavy rain and gusty winds are
possible in the Windward Islands during the next couple of days
during the wave's passage.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent

...TROPICAL WAVES...
Tropical wave extends from 07N56N to 17N51W moving W at 15 kt.
The wave coincides with subtle 700 mb troughing S of 15N between
49W-59W. Scattered moderate and isolated strong convection is
from 06N-15N between 45W-59W. ...

Convection not as impressive as before, but (according to our local Met Office) that's due to the presence of a TROF and once that moves toward the northwest, away from the wave, the deeper convection will return. (At least, that's what I think I heard.)

Re: Tropical Wave east of Lesser Antilles
so if Matthew does the loop as depicted on some models and gets stuck in the Gulf down by the Yucatan next week (I think the 0zGFS had this solution---wild as heck!), would this still develop if it sticks to being a Caribbean runner?
let me know if my question isn't clear...I'm still wrapping my head around the forecast scenarios with Matthew.

Not a meteorologist, in fact more of an idiot than anything. You should probably check with the NHC or a local NWS office for official information.
