Storms have strengthened before even when the MJO wasn't around.

I think that with these waves a month ahead of schedule, a July-like scenario may not be out of the question as far as the possible track and strength.

July-like scenarios are good, they usually make hurricanes recurve away from Florida.

Relax it's a week away or more.
yeah, it is about 6-8 days out, so no need to panic yet, but I would definitely stay alert.


As fast as this wave is moving 6-8 days may be conservative.

A TROPICAL WAVE IS ADDED TO THE 12 UTC ANALYSIS ALONG 20W/21W
SOUTH OF 13N MOVING WEST NEAR 15 KT. THIS WAVE IS WELL DEFINED
WITH A LOW-MID LEVEL CIRCULATION NEAR 7N. THIS FEATURE IS
GENERATING A LARGE AREA OF SHOWERS AND TSTMS FROM 2N-12N BETWEEN
14W-27W. COMPUTER MODELS HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE
INITIALIZATION OF THIS WAVE AND TRACK IT TO THE WNW NEAR 15 KT
AS A WELL-DEFINED TROPICAL WAVE OR POSSIBLY A WEAK LOW PRES
SYSTEM.

A TROPICAL WAVE IS ADJUSTED AHEAD NEAR 37W SOUTH OF 13N MOVING
WEST NEAR 15 KT BASED UPON A 09 UTC QUIKSCAT PASS SHOWING A
SURGE OF STRONGER WINDS BEHIND THE WAVE AXIS. THIS WAVE IS ALSO
WELL-DEFINED WITH BROAD CURVATURE AND AN INVERTED V-PATTERN
EMBEDDED WITHIN THE ITCZ. A LARGE AREA OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
ISOLATED TSTMS LIE FROM 2N-12N BETWEEN 32W-44W.



Above is the 2 PM Discussion related to the two waves that are in the Atlantic not the one in Caribbean.Jan here is the wave GFS has.
