Doubt it, this is likely to bypass the islands to the east as it heads NW-NNW IF it develops. If it does not then, I certainly love the rain.
Let's see what ABajan and Renata think.
Terry, I think earlier this evening David Best (our local TV met) was way too low keyed about that wave. With everyone here focused on festivities, I hope we're not in for a rude awakening in a few days time!

I didn't watch the TV weather ... I seldom do. The local mets tend not to hype anything short of a cyclone, that's their MO.
Wind shear in the environment immediately west of the system is strong but forecast to decrease but after that it returns with a vengeance.
Despite what the models say, I am not getting excited as yet ... not before Tuesday morning.

Wow. Keep in mind the thing off the coast still has to maintain itself for a little while. 91L, on the other hand, has maintained itself. However, it is moving WAY too fast. It still has potential, and the highest potential of any system in the Atlantic right now, but not for another day or so.

1030 outlook on 91L
A VIGOROUS TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED ABOUT 1200 MILES EAST OF THE
WINDWARD ISLANDS IS MOVING WESTWARD AT NEAR 20 MPH. THIS SYSTEM
CONTINUES TO BECOME BETTER ORGANIZED AND CONDITIONS APPEAR
FAVORABLE FOR A TROPICAL DEPRESSION TO DEVELOP DURING THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS.
ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH
TUESDAY.

I imagine that this is a little too optimistic. You never can tell though...

The system is looking quite impressive this morning with a large envelope of cloudiness. However, there are 3 things that have kept it from developing more rapidly:
1) Fast forward motion, although the system has slowed down as you mentioned. I would expect it to slow down further as it reaches the edge of the High Pressure System to the North and approaches the UL trough N of Puerto Rico.
2) Circulation still too broad preventing rapid strengthening.
3) Absence of VERY deep convection anywhere in the system, especially over the center. Now, if deep convection develops in the center of the system, then the circulation will most likely tighten up and we could see development come sooner.
Still, though, the system will most likely become a TD within the next 12-24 hours, but any development should be slow until all those factors that I mentioned become favorable.
