Re: Chantal Moves Toward the Caribbean

Chantal could get interesting later on if it holds together, but right now it's struggling a bit with some modest dry air and shear. The satellite appearance is not pretty. There has never been more than light west wind on the south side of the center so it wouldn't take much weakening to drop it down to an open wave.
