Western Atlantic Tropical Summary - WATS UP August 14, 2005

<img src="http://www.diamondheadweather.com/wats20050814.jpg">

Tropical Storm Irene is headed out to sea, and will only be a threat to
shipping lanes.

Tropical Depression 10 was mauled by the trough and dry air, leaving
a weak circulation behind. I do not expect regeneration of this system
with the large amounts of dry air in the region.

Two tropical waves are moving through the Caribbean, firing up some
convection as they move westward into central America.

I think we should all keep our eyes on the GOM and Caribbean and forget about the Cape Verde region for the next week. I think something could develop in the GOM in the next few days and then strengthen into a TS and make landfall in Texas.

Are you referring to JB's forecast or the ULL moving off of Florida.

I think if the wave currently in the Caribbean makes it into the GOM, we will have plenty to talk about..But at this point that is a lot of "if's"...
