Re: Tropical Wave off the African Coast
Coming off a high latitude, is this what GFS has been tagging the past few runs?
Because this is the Euro

Unless explicitly stated, all info in my posts is based on my own opinions and observations. Tropical storms and hurricanes can be extremely dangerous. Do not think you can beat Mother Nature. Refer to an accredited weather research agency or meteorologist if you need to make serious decisions regarding an approaching storm.

No doom run. There is too much trough even for the 18z. That should tell you something.

Re: Tropical Wave off the African Coast
A tropical wave located over the far eastern tropical Atlantic just
west of the coast of Africa is producing disorganized cloudiness and
showers. Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual
development of this system during the latter part of this week, and
a tropical depression could form by next weekend as it moves
westward to west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph over the central
tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.

Cape Cod would not be pleased at all if that really occurred. We've seen storms hit twice in short periods of time before though (Eta & Iota is a recent example). Sometimes, the pattern just holds up.AutoPenalti wrote:LMFAO GFS is a literal carbon copy of Lee. Oh man.

Eastern and Central Tropical Atlantic:
A tropical wave located over the far eastern tropical Atlantic
between the Cabo Verde Islands and the west coast of Africa is
producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Environmental
conditions appear conducive for gradual development of this system,
and a tropical depression could form by the weekend while it moves
westward to west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph over the central
tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...60 percent.

Re: Tropical Wave off the African Coast
Big shift back East although one member takes it very close to the Florida coast.

18z GEFS… Pretty big shift W towards Caribbean & SE Bahamas…

yup, this may ultimately take a similar path as lee or franklin, according to the 6z gfs
12z gfs brings this way further west now, just east of bahamas....beginning to turn north as trough swoops in
wow trough gets cut off in the southeast while high pressure blocks it from turning out, could push west into long island!
