Ah now I understand your frustration. You get no love from the canes. I would've thought your earthquakes would be more exciting to you. :wink:

Clearly even at this infared image of the full disk you can see the surface low midway between Africa and the Lesser Antilles.

This Low should be getting more attenion, I know it's in the dust bowl but it's held together since coming off the coast and Upper level winds seem some what favorable until gets into the eastern Caribbean. But the models sure aren't doing much with it'

HIGH AMPLITUDE TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 42W S OF 24N MOVING WEST
NEAR 15 KT. A 1011 MB LOW IS ON THE WAVE AXIS NEAR 14N. THIS
WAVE AND LOW REMAIN WELL-DEFINED WITH A LOW LEVEL ROTATION
OBSERVED ON SATELLITE IMAGERY AND IN THE SURROUNDING
SHIPS/BUOYS. HOWEVER...THIS FEATURE CONTINUES TO BE VOID OF ANY
SIGNIFICANT CONVECTION. A FEW SHOWERS ARE SPIRALING ON THE
NORTHERN SEMICIRCLE OF THE SFC LOW AND AT THE BASE OF THE WAVE
WITHIN 300 NM EITHER SIDE OF THE AXIS S OF 10N. THIS WAVE WILL
LIKELY INCREASE IN FORWARD SPEED OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS
IT TRACKS UNDER A STRONG LOW-LEVEL RIDGE.

The one thing that people are quick to forget is the you must watch the waves in the early parts of the season. During this year, most of the low latitude (below 18N) waves have enhanced just East of the islands. North of 18N, they have also enhanced, but due to interaction with the TUTT. I think this one will be no exception. Convection will fire in earnest before reaching the islands(around 50W)...whatever chance it has will be the greatest at that time.

If this thing can gain some convection, then WATCH OUT! I will be monitoring it closely.

Nothing to see in the data in this bouy that opens eyebrows except for the winds from the NE meaning the low is to the east of that bouy which is located at 14.5n-46.0w.

I was also looking at that just now, Luis. I think it's significant that rising daytime pressure has leveled at only 29.92. I believe another drop is coming.

As I said yesterday, 41041 is the buoy to watch. The pressure is continuing the downward trend. Unfortunately, the low has gone WSW in the last 24 hours and will pass S of that location...

if this wave waits until geting closer to the islands/US to develop, looks like we are following on the heals of the 2005 pattern.

They didn't even schedule another flight for next two days. They must not think this has chance of developing anytime soon.

This wave will be reaching warmer waters in the next 24-48 hours , this will be time to see if it can fire up some thunderstorms.

Didn't know where to place this so here it is. If you look to the northeast of Puerto Rico you can see a blop that looks like a missile. Thought it was cool looking.
