that StormSurf map seems a bit off.

Either 18 hours late or a whole 24 or so early.  It shows a low at 50W at 00hr where no low is at currently and no low at 30W where a 1010 low is mapped currently.

Regardless taht low currntly at 30W on NOAA maps need sto gain a bit ot lattitude.

The NCEP GFS has it off our coast for four days as a cat 4/5.... almost sitting on top of us.

Usually it's wrong ten days out .... and lets hope it is this time, we don't want another Jeanne or Frances event sitting on top of us.

Let's not get too dramatic just yet... Most long range models have it curving north on a path between Bermuda and the US EC:

Changed a little in term of track but now not expected to be a storm. It's the low that's just exited Africa that might be one worth watching.

I was just looking at the visible and IR loops from the floater.  Widely scattered farely deep convection and cirrus tops are going out in all directions so there doesn't look like there is much sheer in the area.  Looks interesting so far.

Sunday morning MRF has a tropical low on top of Central Florida on Tuesday Aug.10. A long way away but something to watch....

ECMWF doesn't got that far in time, but has a tight low North of Dominican Republic on Saturday Aug.7th.


'tis the season...soon...

also, isn't it a recuring theme. With tiptime's comment...back to school swell....
