Re: Tropical Wave in the Eastern Caribbean
Looks like vorticity may be on the increase with this wave. Not saying it happens quickly but definitely getting the feeling we will be getting Delta from this.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

It already has a very vigorous mid-level signature. This system has my attèntion!
This post above was from Sept 30.
I always felt that this wave would be the one to pose the greatest potential threat to the Florida peninsula.
Looks like my thoughts from that post above just may come to fruition. Vorticity is on the increase this morning for this wave and the models are definitely signaling development in the medium term. Time for another invest designation, which should come fairly soon.

6Z GEFS from this wave for sub 1,000 mb CONUS landfalls has out of 31 members:
1 hitting far SW FL, one Sarasota, 2 hitting FL Big Bend, 1 hitting FL Panhandle, and 2 hitting LA.

Re: Tropical Wave in the Eastern Caribbean
If one chooses the path between the Euro and GFS it would be the HWRF and thats what I'm going for in terms of the path, intensity is another thing as a system goes as if it takes the Euro path it could be a big Florida panhandle issue, if it takes the HWRF path it could be a Florida Peninsula hit and might have the biggest potential with that path and the GFS path which would be almost a nothing burger so I feel this is definitely one to watch for the eastern GOM

Pretty much agree with you on this assessment. This system has always bought me a bad vibe for the past several days.

Re: Tropical Wave in the Eastern Caribbean
Time to tag it.

A tropical wave is producing widespread cloudiness, showers, and
thunderstorms over the eastern Caribbean Sea, with locally
heavy rainfall and gusty winds affecting portions of the ABC
Islands, the Lesser Antilles, the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico.
Environmental conditions are expected to become a little more
conducive for development, and a tropical depression could form next
week while the system moves westward or west-northwestward at about
15 mph across the central and western Caribbean Sea.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.
