The 0zGFS wants to split this wave in 2 with 2 separate systems, can’t discount that with the pattern but I would think either the northern or southern one would win out and not both. It’s a really odd setup

The Northern system wins out

Down to 10%

Gone for good? Or will it respawn when it passes the Lesser Antilles? Granted it keeps its vorticity...

4. Another tropical wave is located over the eastern Atlantic Ocean,
several hundred miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands. This
system is producing little shower activity, and further development
of this system is not expected.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.

How do you get these really large model run images?


Tropical Tidbits has a “forecast GIF” blue button for each model run where you can specify the start and end hours. The button is on the bottom-right of model image. You can download the file and then upload to an image hosting site like postimage.org before posting here.

A small area of low pressure has formed about midway between the
Windward Islands and west Africa. Upper-level winds are marginally
conducive for some slow development this week as the system
meanders in the central tropical Atlantic Ocean.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.
