Scroll down and the last disturbance that they mention is the wave that develops.But they recurve it before it gets close to the islands but I dont buy too much that fish route because it has not developed as of yet and being weak it is going to continue on a west course.Also the ridge will it be strong to not let it go fishing or it will weaken in time before it gets close to the islands.I saw the 12z GFS and it mantains the ridge so maybe by the next UKMET 18z run they will have to adjust the track.

Don't know yet Luis. Too early to try to guess, but there will be a handfull of these to come. Meteosat visible at 18Z shows a nice shot of a surface circulation developing with this wave. Easterly flow is moving it right along. Also an area to the SE of the circulation looks interesting. Don't know if this is the #2 feature on the hit parade. Seeems like # 2 is coming off the coast now. Anything up with the convection south of FLorida or the SW Caribbean. A lot of flareups in those areas as well. Things heating up a bit 8-) Cheers!!
