I think its that little cloud streak north of Trinidad in the Windward Islands. That's our wave. If you stare at it long enough it disappears.

You may say that but this is the same wave in the 72hr location of the NHC's written map that Hurakan threw up. :wink:

Check out the 1008mb. low currently over the Yucatan if it breaks free of the cold front and shear relaxes we'll have something to keep a close eye on.

From the Sat Antonio forecast discussion:

UPPER
RIDGE IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN IN CONTROL FOR THE NEXT 10 DAYS OR SO
WITH SOME UNSETTLED WEATHER HANGING OVER THE GULF. IT WILL BE
INTERESTING TO SEE IF THE WARM GULF WATERS AND THE WINDFLOW
ALOFT WILL SUPPORT A TROPICAL WAVE THAT IS SUGGESTED OVER THE
CENTRAL GULF BY THE GFS A WEEK FROM SUNDAY.
