been reading that too with Obs. from Barbados.. was wondering with the NICE CDO we have now with TD6, could it be a TS now? or was the winds a thing of TD and strong westerlies coming together, to give some good winds to the island?... Some of the 00Z runs are coming out... nice little shift showing up?

One thing i have noticed, seems to me that this time the center of the high will be forming off the New England area, instead of more to the south where the last one was with Dean? Anyone else seeing this... I KNOW its way down the road, but looking at the globals... seems like this may be a little different setup then Dean? On time will tell, but with the shift showing up in a 00z runs... (ones i have seen so far)... this might be something we need to watch closely.... **I know the models will jump around a lot until we they get a good handle on the system and the surrounding enviroment***
