Flaring up nicely but once again too little too late, could possibly develop a weak system in the BoC IMO...

Vorticity increasing near the surface and decent Convergence and Divergence. No real model support.

Some more convection today...getting a bit more active in the W. Carribean.
Development would probably be slow to occur if at all.

Looks like shear did this one in Karl. What I find interesting is that guidance keeps suggesting the W Caribbean and W GOM are very favorable for future development. Maybe some good swells to catch as well. :wink:

Low shear, but also hardly any convection. Don't think this one will go. Map from UW-CIMSS TCTrack with sat, shear (yellow lines), vorticity (orange lines), obs.
