We've got two systems, that could develop, one southeast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (the longer shot) and one near Bermuda (Which may be a depression today).
The Navy already has an eye on them, and so do I. The one near Bermuda is a candidate for the first depression of the year. It won't last long because of a low nearby, but it is something to track.
Let's throw up some chances:
On my development scale, where is the system southeast of Hatteras now?
code:
forget it) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 (sure thing)
[--*-------------------]
This one has a much lower chance to form, although it is showing some signs of spinning. Definitely don't want to write it totally off yet...
As for the Bermuda System..
code:
forget it) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 (sure thing)
[----------*-----------]
A much better chance, overall, and my personal choice for first almost if not complete tropical depression of 2002.
We'll See...
