A long way to go and IMO once this either enters the GOM or the BOC, chances for development should increase.

Yes, by the middle of next week...maybe Tuesday???, most of the ingredients will be present in the gulf that may give us something to open our eyes a little more to.

There May be a MID level rotation developing again in the GOH. This Blob is tracking in a general westward motion but check out the moisture being feed into it from the south.

The wave axis is already inland over the Yucatan this morning. Convection had fired up across the NW Caribbean as it passed a small upper low. But since the wave axis has passed the low, all convection is diminishing quickly. There will probably be a flare-up of thunderstorms over the Yucatan this afternoon, and some may spread out into the BoC on Sunday, but upper level winds are not going to be favorable for any development through at least the next 5-6 days. An upper level trof is digging all the way down to the southern Gulf, producing moderate W-NW wind flow aloft. With easterly trades of 20-25 kts, a W-NW wind of 25-35 kts aloft means wind shear will be pretty high down there for a while.
Here's a 200mb wind speed/streamline forecast for Sunday morning to demonstrate the increasing wind shear.

I think that tail to the south is the wave axis thats all because it still is a tropical wave.

This wave doesn't look so good now, the convection is decreasing and the wave has shrunk. But I still think this has a chance for development once it enters the GOM.

Well, I don't know about you, but I'd pick an international vacation over tracking a storm any day!
I wouldn't.

I rather track a hurricane then worry about terrorism going on a international vacation.

I would agree with wxman57 as the upper level winds will just be too much for this wave to do much. If it could hang around for 5+ days maybe, but I think it was mentioned that would be doubtful?

I wouldn't.
LOL....well let me re-phrase that. If it was France, yea, I'd much rather stay at home and track tropical systems, wash clothes, clean out old TV Dinner plates, etc. Now, if it was Italy, New Zealand, Bora Bora, or playing with the penguins down in Antarctica, I'd jump on that in a heartbeat!
I don't they he'll be missing much though.

Wow 57 that's a good bit farther than the models were predicting earlier, last I heared, it was only going to may it to the NGOM coast today then start retreating.
I didn't think the wave had any chance, but this tail of moisture that is being enhanced by the small upper trough over the Yucatan, I thought could if it stayed in the NW Carribean long enough, but if that kind of shear is realized then forget about it.
Maybe a weekend with no Invest huh.
