It isn't impossible for any type of low pressure system to form off the Cape Verde Island between mid October and July. :)

But that's more like Election Day! I suppose its Nicholas :o It is interesting though, cause this far out the GFS usually doesn't show lows out there in November at 300+ hours. Caribbean is interesting, and you're right SF, JB loves the UKMET from what I remember. The thing about that model is that it can be nutz on sometimes, and way out to an extreme the next minute. May make for an exciting end to a somewhat dull hurricane season in Florida, despite the numbers. :roll:
