I was thinking about that possibility after I made the post, obviously should have included this. This thing isn't showing signs of development, thus, it shouldn't develop until it gets past the "hurricane graveyard"-the Eastern Caribbean. If it does go into the Gulf, well, I don't mean to hype it up but the Eastern GOMEX may have to deal with a major hurricane. Still a long ways off but definitely something to watch when it nears Jamaica, as you said.
Any thoughts on intensity? Been a while since we've had a good Eastern GOMEX storm.
