I knew it, this is just too strange and too much to learn for them to pass up investigating.

Dang.....180 degrees from this morning. Just another lesson to those who immediately dismiss a system just because convection has decreased.

Last night they basically said this would not develop and upper level winds would not be favorable.

If a LLC has indeed formed we will likely know from the obs at Barbados before recon even gets there. expect N to NW winds there.

Hey, this is what makes weather so addictive! Despite all the knowledge and science, Mother Natures will at times do the unexpected. That's why we are all here, if it was 100% predictable, we'd be bored. :wink:

Well for the first time since this system has been around it's starting to look interesting IMO. Can't wait to see what recon finds however I don't think this poses any threat to the mainland as the high pressure looks to keep it on a westward course.

actually if you look at the models it seems to curve at the end of the period.

the further south it stays, the more likely it is to develop because the strongest shear is to the North.

THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS BECOME MORE CONCENTRATED THIS
MORNING...AND AN AIR FORCE RESERVE RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT WILL

REGARDLESS OF TROPICAL CYCLONE
DEVELOPMENT...THE SYSTEM WILL SPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH
GUSTY WINDS TO TROPICAL STORM FORCE IN SQUALLS OVER PORTIONS OF THE
LESSER ANTILLES LATER TODAY AND TONIGHT.



I don't feel so bad about doing so many flip flops regarding this potential system, as the TWO has probably done the same amount. geez...

Also the SAL shouldnt be a problem at all because its like couple hundred miles north of it. I think it has a lil better environment then Chris. IMO
