You need to offer up some sound proof that this system is gonna be a fish.
take a look at the GFDL....One of the worlds best tropical systems model....
I reviewed all the available global models before i made my post, and i can't conclude from what i saw that this system if it develops will be a fish.

02/1145 UTC 11.0N 39.1W T1.0/1.0 98L -- Atlantic Ocean


This is the first T Number that SSD gives to 98L as last night they gave (too weak) designation.

Quoting JB about early model runs "they always have a northern bias right out of the gate".

An ULL is clearly visible on the water vapor imagery up aroun 27N. I don't see any rapid digging yet. It is kind of dry and 98l will likely do the weak/west thing for a couple more days. If 98 makes it west of the ULL axis near 45w and is still south of 12N then we should see her headed into the Caribbean.

Completely different storm if its not a fish.

This system looks alot Ernesto when it was a Tropical Wave in the Central Atlantic. I think it has a good chance to develop in the next few days.

I also think it will miss the connection with ULL to the north, especially if it remains weak. It doesn't seem moving that much southward this morning.

Why does the steering currents have to be towards FL?

EDIT: sorry I just read that you said 99L

This is about 98L

At first glance I would agree with you but, taking a look at the 200mb analysis and the windshear charts at CIMSS it appears that the SW shear is actually winds moving away from the system.

200mb analysis :uarrow: :uarrow:

http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/tropic/real- ... m7shr.html
:uarrow: :uarrow: Windshear

Which ends up being upper level divergent air on top of the system... helping to vent the storms.

98L has a better shot to develop first than 99L as the eastern Caribbean system has to deal with the trough to it's west.

Better than what? Looks much worse than yesterday. MLC no longer evident. I don't think that the models are focused on the correct area. That part around 39W is diminishing and/or being ripped apart. The place to watch is farther east, near 11N/35-36W.

Why would someone want to watch a system that is going to be a fish and affect NOBODY??? Isn't that boring?? I'm not saying I want it to come and destroy everything and cause deaths but It would be a lot more interesting than watching a system that will eventually turn north and dissipate...99L has a chance of getting deep into the Caribbean and might get close to the north Caribbean...It's a wait and see issue.

How are you so certain this system is going to be a fish?

About Chris, we thought it could be a severe TX storm and it dissipated near Hispanola.
About Ernesto, we thought it could be another Katrina and Hispanola weaked it too.

So, what about a not-fish for 98L ? :roll:

I agree with Chris. The system to watch is not the blob of disorganized mess near 40W, but the system near 35W. It already has the signature of pre-development. Upper-level winds remain marginally favorable where it is now (farther west and northwest...a totally different story), so slow development into something stronger is quite possible.

Today is a "gathering moisture" period. Tomorrow should be "consolidating convection". After that, possible low pressure formation.

I'll be watching it...

Yesterday,I was thinking that NHC in coordination with NRL would labeled 98L for the area more to the east (Where wxman57 and Hyperstorm said) than where they did and continue to show this morning.
