I agree this may actually do something. From becoming tropical to dumping rain on some desserted island.

The Good and the Bad News for those that want development:

Bad News: Shear values are around 20 - 50 knots

Good News: Forecasted to decrease by 10 - 20 knots in 24 hours.

TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
805 AM EDT WED APR 12 2006

TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION FOR NORTH AMERICA...CENTRAL
AMERICA...THE GULF OF MEXICO...THE CARIBBEAN SEA...NORTHEASTERN
SECTIONS OF SOUTH AMERICA...AND THE ATLANTIC OCEAN TO THE
AFRICAN COAST FROM THE EQUATOR TO 32N. THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION
IS BASED ON SATELLITE IMAGERY...WEATHER OBSERVATIONS...
RADAR...AND METEOROLOGICAL ANALYSIS.



AN AREA OF RAIN HAS RECENTLY DEVELOPED 50 NM OR
SO NW OF THE LOW CENTER. LOW CLOUDS AND A FEW SHOWERS OVER THE
YUCATAN PENINSULA ARE ASSOCIATED WITH A WEAK SFC TROUGH. SAN
JUAN DOPPLER RADAR INDICATES SCATTERED SHOWERS ACROSS THE ISLAND
BUT MUCH OF THE ORGANIZED ACTIVITY IS TO THE W OF THE ISLAND
ASSOCIATED WITH ANOTHER SFC TROUGH WHICH LIES ALONG 70W FROM
16N-21N. THIS MOISTURE IS MOVING WWD OVER HISPANIOLA INTO THE
DEEP MOISTURE FORCED BY THE UPPER TROUGH AND STATIONARY FRONT.
THE TIGHT PRES GRAD CAUSED BY THE 1012 MB LOW AND A 1032 MB HIGH
OFF THE NE US COAST IS CAUSING STIFF 25-30 KT E/ENE WINDS FROM
FLORIDA TO 65W MAINLY BETWEEN 20N-28N. GFS KEEPS THE WEAK LOW
MEANDERING N OF HISPANIOLA THRU FRI WITH THE UPPER TROUGH
FINALLY FLATTENING ON SAT. UNTIL THEN...RAIN IS LIKELY ACROSS
THE CARIBBEAN AND W ATLANTIC. EXPECT THE AREA OF RAIN TO SHIFT
SLIGHTLY EWD LATER TODAY AND ENCOMPASS THE E BAHAMAS TO PUERTO
RICO SPREADING TO THE NE ACROSS THE W ATLC. FAIR WEATHER WILL
CONTINUE ACROSS FLORIDA...THE W BAHAMAS...AND THE W CARIBBEAN
THRU THE WEEKEND AS STRONG SUBSIDENCE DOMINATES.

Oy!

Relax, people ...

It's a little early to be jumping on ever upper-level low (or in this case trough) and thinking it portends development.

it has the potential to devlop i the next few days as the shear weakens. look at the link i gave above, and you might see somthing forming! also, that Discussion Statment was given 3 hours ago, so its not entirly accurate.

It is accurate within three hours. Also they did not state they were expecting some type of subtropical/tropical development.

Not enough moisture,low and marginal sst's.To form at the tail of a front takes time to make it to the surface if it can.Then if I am not mistaken it helps to be a cutoff low.Would not give this much of chance just an oppurtunity to brush up.
