There are multiple areas to watch over the next ten days:
1.) 91L, of course. All the globals show development around September 1st or 2nd.
2.) A shortie might try to spin up in the NW subtropics late Tuesday or sometime on Wednesday. If so, it’ll prevent August from being a ridiculous 0/0/0 and 0 ACE.
3.) A wave will exit Africa within 24-36 hours and head NW. This it the NHC’s 10/30 AOI. The GFS, CMC, and ICON develop this to various degrees, and it’s possible it could find decent conditions in the central subtropics later on.
4.) Another wave will exit Africa on September 2nd/3rd. The ICON loves this one, but the rest of the globals have only occasionally tried to develop it. This wave also looks like it’ll head NW after splashdown (what’s with this immediate NW track this year?), but might be at a lower latitude and be less broad than the 10/30 AOI
5.) Yet another wave will exit Africa on September 6/7th. Not much on the models yet, but today’s 00z CMC shows it as quite a strong wave coming off at a slightly lower latitude than the rest. Might want to watch this over the coming days to see if other models try to develop it.
Dishonorable mention: the GFS’s persistent WCar phantom, which is finally shifting to the EPac. Goodbye and good riddance.

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.
