Re: Focus on Low off Georgia Coast and Central Caribbean

If 94L continues how it is now, I would not be the least bit suprised to see the NHC classify it as early as...well...any time now! This system is looking very healthy. The only thing in its way looks to be an upper-level low over eastern Cuba which could create some wind shear.

Edit:

Buoy 42058 in the eastern Caribbean Sea has been showing a significant pressure drop throughout the day (averaging about -0.01 in/hr during the last nine or so hours), increasing wave heights (over eight feet), a wind gust to 35 knots about six hours ago, and sustained winds of about 25 knots six hours ago.

Be sure to look at the historical plots.
