Initial visible indicates that it didn't quite go *Puff* , i.e. looks like some kind of rotation is still with us this morning. Also Barbados reporting 29.85 in. Hg (1011 hPa). - and thunder as of 4am.

This is looking more interesting:

"Tropical wave is along 58w S of 20n moving W 10 kt. The wave
shows an inverted-v cloud pattern on satellite pictures.
Scattred showers and isolated tstms are related to the wave.
Part of this shower activity is already affecting the Windward
Islands. The wave will enter the eastern Caribbean late today
and is expected to move across the Virgin Islands and Puerto
Rico late Sunday through Monday."

This are appears to be gaining more convection. This needs to be watched.

Convection has increased and there is a spin. Does this have a shot?

It sure may. But that's the million dollar question guess.

Surprise more people aren't talking about this as it seems to be building slowly but surely.

Maybe because convectionwise isn't impressive at all and its organizacion is disorganized (if any)!!! Also, look at the environment that it's moving into, very dry. Time will tell.
