The tropical wave located about 900 miles east of the Leeward
Islands remains disorganized. Upper-level winds are expected to
remain only marginally favorable for tropical cyclone formation
during the next day or two as this system moves toward the
northwest at 15 to 20 mph.

The NHC is not so sure that wanna-be will be something more than that.

Jeez... Hurricane in 48 hours. Pretty quick formation there. Speaking of which ::starts a discussion:: ... What's the fastest a hurricane has formed? Anyone know? Or... Any storm in the past that has had an INCREDIBLE increase in intensity?
