Brent, do you think that the track for TD4 will keep slowly slowly shifting further and further west as time goes by?

I'm thinking the lower end of that cone. It would need to be turning now in order to follow that track, but it's waaaay too early to tell.

Tropical Depression Four Discussion Number 1

Statement as of 11:00 PM EDT on July 04, 2005

satellite information and surrounding surface observations indicate
the strong tropical low over the southeastern Caribbean Sea has
developed into Tropical Depression Four. The initial intensity is
based on satellite estimates of 25 kt and an earlier 31-kt wind
report from St. Lucia.

The initial motion estimate is 285/15. The depression is embedded
within a deep-layered east-southeasterly flow pattern...and this
pattern is forecast to continue for the next 24-36 hours. The
cyclone is expected to slowly gain latitude across the Caribbean
Sea...with a gradual decrease in forward speed and a turn toward
the northwest forecast when the center nears the South Coast of
Cuba. The NHC model guidance is strongly convergent on this general
track through 72 hours...but then they diverge significantly after
that with the ECMWF...NOGAPS...Canadian...and the BAM models
bringing the cyclone near South Florida...and the UKMET...GFS...and
GFDL moeels taking the storm over or just west of the Lower Keys in
96 hours or so.

While the upper-level outflow pattern looks quite impressive on
satellite imagery...the upper-level anticyclone is almost too large
for such a small circulation to intensify very quickly. The
official forecast is a little less than the SHIPS and GFDL models
...Which bring the intensity up to about 70 kt in 72 hours and 80
kt in 96 and 120 hours.

Forecaster Stewart
