Just designated this morning.
1. Central Tropical Atlantic:
Conventional and Low-earth orbit satellite data indicate that
showers and thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave located
about midway between the west coast of Africa and the Windward
Islands have increased and become better organized since yesterday
afternoon. Further development of this system is possible and a
tropical depression could form over the next several days while it
generally moves westward to west-northwestward over the central
tropical Atlantic and approaches the Leeward Islands on Friday.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.
 
Check out the hard north and out to sea ensemble members.

The 06Z GFS op run is still lackluster but there was a huge increase in the 96 hr GEFS so far for development over the NE islands.

NHC will initiate advisories on Tropical Depression Seven, located about 800 miles east of the Leeward Islands, at 1100 AM AST (1500 UTC).
 
NHC doubts this makes it out of the Caribbean at this point

After the system moves into the eastern Caribbean, the
westerly shear is forecast to increase somewhat and the global
models suggest that the system could struggle to maintain its
closed circulation after that time.0_5day_cone_no_line_and_wind.png
 
Trough kicks it out 11th hour... fun stuff

Not the easiest one to pin down. Has the characteristics of the typical stronger system gets hooked into the trough and exits stage right but that's assuming it doesn't shoot due west or even WSW through D5 which brings it near or south of the shredder and changes things.

That new convective burst could also facilitate some more northerly short term if it tugs the LLC under it. Lots of moving parts with this one starting out

Or center relocations / reformations due to shear and land interaction with Hispaniola and PR.
 
So is it crazy to feel that if TD 7 does go right through Hispaniola and then Cuba that it might not even survive?

I'm just a hobbyist so feel free to disregard anything I say lol.

Edit: I just saw Brent's post lol.
