12z Euro looks like another struggle-cane sneaking west like Laura. However, very inconsistent with intensity. IMO, the abundance of shear point to a weaker system until reaching 50W or so.

12z EMCF Gen Wind tracks Forecast (Paulette & Eighteen tracks not shown)
Appears to be another traffic jam, with 2 waves exiting ~9/10 (~12.5N), then another 9/12 exit to the north (~15N)

So basically we go from a hurricane on 00z Euro with this wave to a weak Storm on 12z Euro? Sounds about right considering the state of these global models this year.

Here is hour 360 of the 12Z EPS: all or most of these 13 appear to be from a combo of Rene and the wave currently inside Africa with I think most from the wave inside Africa. I can definitely identify one in the C GOM and one in the E GOM as being from the wave currently inside Africa. It is hard to decipher some of these:

I have a feeling this will be the big one for September. Sally could be a name that we all remember.

Up from 0/50 to 0/60 for the 8 PM outlook:

2. A tropical wave is forecast to emerge off the west coast of Africa
late Wednesday or Thursday. Gradual development is anticipated once
the system moves over water, and a tropical depression could form
late this week or over the weekend while the system moves generally
westward across the eastern tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent.

This could be a true long tracker Cape Verde storm if it develops soon after splashing into the Atlantic. Maybe a huge ACE producer in the making??

If this stays at a low latitude, doesn’t recurve into the colder northern Atlantic, and ends up becoming a major, I think this could be a 40+ ACE system. That would be a massive ACE producer on top of Paulette and Rene, which look like they’ll be sticking around for a while and could both pump out 20+ ACE each.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

And don’t be surprised if this is near the islands in 8 to 10 days, could be a threat of major proportions if the euro ensembles have any merit

These are the opinions of a non professional, for official products check the NHC, NWS and NOAA

My 5 day forecast for this wave

Splashdown should be in 60hrs and cyclogenesis in 72 But I do expect some strengthening to 120hrs

Now. No development
12hrs. No development
24hrs. No development
36hrs. No development
48hrs. No development
60hrs. 50% of development
72hrs. 90% of development
84hrs. TD. 35mph
96hrs. TS. 40mph
108hrs TS. 50mph
120hrs TS. 60mph

Consistently ominous solutions with this one. Haven't had a real long track threat coming from the east this year but things may be about to get crankin'. The question is, will something snipe a name before this goes offshore or will this be Sally? God it's SO WEIRD to be talking about S/T/V/W named Cabo Verde peak season mid-September long trackers. What a year!

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.

For the wave still in Africa, the 0Z UKMET is bullish and a bit further south than the 12Z run:

Those of you in the islands will not like what the 00z Euro does with this wave

This 0Z Euro run reminds me of that aggressive run from a few days ago that scared us but this obviously is much scarier since it is much further west due to it being a several days later run.
