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.

A strong tropical wave extends its axis across the central
Atlantic from 16N48W to 08N54W, moving west at 15 kt over the
past 24 hours.
The wave coincides with a broad inverted trough at
700 mb as depicted in model guidance and prevails in an area of
abundant moisture. A large area of scattered moderate convection
is observed from 07N-17N between 40W-59W.

A large area of showers and thunderstorms located several hundred
miles east of the Windward Islands is associated with a tropical
wave. 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 tropical cyclone development, locally heavy rains and gusty winds
are possible in the Windward and southern Leeward Islands during the
next couple of days as the wave approaches and then passes.

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.)

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.

It's not even an Invest :) IMO it's maybe a bit early to look at the models? :D

Definitely lots of convection and turning. Wonder when this will get an official invest?

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.
