Tropical 2024 Tropical Thread Reboot

Gone on the CMC and a weak low that buries itself in the YUC on GFS. Basically nothing for peak season
 
0Z UKMET: another run with no TC (goes out to 168)

The reason why it is "baffling" is because you're anxiously looking at every model run this far out.

The guidance is more than obviously telling us there will be a storm to keep tabs on in the future.

Using the modeling as guidance, we should logically decide if whatever reason it's not developing it is plausible or not. The modeling is obviously struggling with something that we, as humans, should look into.

The discussion here should be: why are the same models trying to lose the storm. What is the difference vs the stronger solutions. What is the most likely outcome?

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

1. Central Tropical Atlantic:
A tropical wave over the central Tropical Atlantic continues to
produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms that have become a
little more concentrated near its axis. Environmental conditions
appear conducive for gradual development of this system, and a
tropical depression could form by early next week while it moves
westward at 10 to 15 mph, approaching the Lesser Antilles. The
system is then forecast to continue moving westward to
west-northwestward across portions of the eastern and central
Caribbean Sea by the middle part of next week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.

2. Eastern Tropical Atlantic:
Another tropical wave just emerging off the coast of Africa is
currently associated with an area of disorganized showers and
thunderstorms. Some slow development of this system is possible
through the middle portion of next week as it moves slowly to the
west-northwest or northwest over the Eastern Tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percen
And it begins... Hurricane Season is now waking up.
