Re: Area of Interest - NE Caribbean

Hi Steve:
Actually at the time, the upper air progs had pulled the western limit of the Atlantic ridge back to the east and the 300mb forecast showed a southerly flow on the west side of the ridge. I also didn't think that it would move quite as fast as it did. Progs still show the southerly flow so shear could keep this one from developing. Here is a link - they also have a 48 hour.
