The new GFDL has Tropical Storm Otto doing a loop in the Caribbean, and then moving back west. The farther west it moves..it will have to go through shear, but there are decreasing shear and more favorable conditions as well as warmer waters to the west.

It is not a TS or TC even and is not forecast to be. DO NOT CALL IT SOMETHING THAT IT IS NOT. WE DO NOT ALLOW POSTING OF DISINFORMATION AT THIS SITE AND YOU KNOW IT!!!
All it is is a model and its interpretation of what could happen. HUGE DIFFERENCE!!!
