Some models try to develop this wave down the road and that is why I am making this thread.

The 00z GFS had this become a Caribbean/Gulf hurricane, but the 06z run has dropped it. However, both the GEFS and Euro ensembles remain quite active, especially the Euro, which starts showing the disturbance in as little as a few days and has twice as many members show development as the GEFS.

Thanks to the train of invests, the environment in front of this wave might be better prepped for development, and it looks like it’ll remain at a low latitude.

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.

Andy Hazelton thinking that this system might be worth watching? Uh oh, looks like it is something we should indeed monitor then!

I think what GFS has in GOM is from this wave.

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave recently moved off the coast of
Africa, and is currently analyzed along 18W from 22N southward.
Scattered showers are noted from 09N to 14N east of 24W.

Big favor for this storm. PTC6 might be the appetizer, this could be the entree for us here in the CONUS.

This one could be the one thing last year lacked. A true long tracker.

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 20W
from 05N to 22N, moving westward at 10 kt. Scattered moderate to
isolated strong convection is within 60 nm west of the wave from
10N to 14N.

I have a feeling we are going to see a southward shift in those track clusters

Certainly not the worst African easterly wave I've seen...

I posted this in the model runs thread but I'm gonna put it here too since it does appear that it is from this wave. Fantasy range GFS:

Of course it's way out there but one thing is likely: we're probably going to be tracking this wave for a while...

I am in no way a professional. Take what I say with a grain of salt as I could be totally wrong. Please refer to the NHC, NWS, or SPC for official information.

Very surprised the NHC has not tagged it for their 5 day outlook. This looks better than 92 and and 93L ever did.
