LONG TERM...A VERY WELL DEFINED AND STRONG TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED
LOW IN THE TROPICAL ATLANTIC NEAR 47 WEST CONTINUES ON A WESTWARD
TRACK AND IS FORECAST TO APPROACH THE EAST AND NORTHEAST CARIBBEAN
SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY. LATEST MODELS SUGGEST THAT THIS SYSTEM
WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND HAS THE POTENTIAL TO DEVELOP INTO A
TROPICAL CYCLONE. THEREFORE ALL INTERESTS SHOULD KEEP ABREAST OF THE
LATEST FORECASTS CONCERNING THIS SYSTEM WHICH WILL BE CLOSELY
MONITORED.
The above is from the San Juan NWS Discussion this afternoon.

Haven't really checked much into this system quite yet, but you can see that there is NO closed circulation at all. Yes, it has a broad circulation, but not a closed center, which you can tell by the absence of any north winds on the front side of it. This is based on an early morning Quikscat.
The system has not become any better organized during the day today, even though it has an upper-level anticyclone that was well forecasted by the models a few days ago. This is responsible for the lack of strong shearing winds at this time.
Despite the above mentioned factor and very warm SSTs, there really isn't much organization with this system. Convection has developed and deepened this evening over the main feature, but the energy is mostly confined to the NE of it. This doesn't make it too favorable for significant development in the near term.
Regardless of its strength, the system is likely to gradually begin a WNW trajectory as it nears the islands. This is ALL due to an area of troughiness that extends from just north of Puerto Rico eastward for several hundred miles. It really is not a point of it (95L) being in a southern latitude because what is supposed to steer it is far enough south to pull it gradually.
Just be sure that until/IF it develops a well-defined closed low pressure center, the system will not be classified. Right now it doesn't meet that criteria.
Behind 95L, a distinct disturbance near 8N 38W is gaining some momentum. It is currently under some moderate northerly wind flow associated with the large anticyclone over and just NE of 95L. If it persists for the next 24 hours, it will be yet another feature to watch as it positions itself under a slightly more favorable easterly flow...

W-CENTRAL ATLC WAVE TILTED SW TO NE ALONG 6N49W 20N45W MOVING W
10 KT. A 1011 MB LOW IS NEAR THE WAVE AXIS AROUND 9N48W. THE
LOW ISN'T PARTICULARLY WELL-DEFINED AT THIS POINT AND IS
PROBABLY ELONGATED FROM SW TO NE SIMILAR TO THE WAVE AXIS.
HOWEVER LIGHT SHEAR AND VERY WARM WATER IS IN THE PATH OF THE
LOW WITH ALMOST EVERY GLOBAL MODEL INDICATING THE POSSIBILITY OF
TROPICAL GENESIS. THIS AREA COULD BECOME A TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 36 HOURS AND MOST GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A MOTION
TOWARD THE NW BECAUSE OF A WEAKNESS IN THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE.
SCATTERED MODERATE CONVECTION IS FROM 9N-11.5N BETWEEN 49W-51W
WITH THE LOW AND WIDELY SCATTERED MODERATE IS FROM 11N-17N
BETWEEN 42W-48W ASSOCIATED WITH THE WAVE.
Special Feature at 8 PM Discussion.
