June 27 in a matter of hours, wiped out every movable object in her path. Audrey killed 425 people, 154 of whom were under the age of 9

looks like the strongest support for a surface center is well east of the bahamas, so if it has a successful formation, whatever would be out there would come in a bit further north than the earlier model progs.. say myrtle beach to cape lookout. that'd give it more time over water. better chances for a bret if it develops further out.
weak low near nic/hon coast is still just sitting around. not much upper support there yet (it's coming in from the east), but there's decent low level convergence.
beatriz has faded away in the eastpac, but it looks like calvin is revving up south of acupulco. the pac-atl response from beatriz to 94L worked out ok.. maybe the trend will continue and the new one will have an atlantic correspondence in a few days (perhaps that w carib feature).
on the other hand, it's june.. getting one storm alone is iffy.. two is a stretch.

FWIW, both the Unisys and the wunderground sites now have a weak surface low of 1011mb plotted in the bahamas Unisys surface map

at looking at sat and local obs from florida, i am having a hard time think that the weak 1011mb low is still there in the bahamas. does anyone think that a low will form off the sw of florida coast (in GOM)? looking at vis and radar and obs. could there be a low forming near punta gorda? moving wsw?

Early season stuff can be quite odd. Looks to be a spin just south of eastern Cuba as well. Anyhow, the one interesting thing about the entire basin is that it is very moist. Moreso than I've seen in years all the way to the eastern Atlantic.

Hi to all from eastern nc. Looks as if we may be in line for this one. Remember 1999 when we got pounded with twice , then Floyd, then Irene. What many do not see is the pattern in the Atlantic may be shaping up like 1999 & !996 when it seemed everything got turned up the eastern seaboard. What are any of your early thoughts.

Looking at Miami/Key West radar almost looks like there is a low due south of Marco Island, FL. Poorly defined but you can certainly see circulation...any thoughts?

Have not looked myself but just wondering what radar provider are you using...NWS, IC etc. Things are getting messy down there but I don't think time will allow anything to develop.

I'm actually looking at Nexrad3 - a program I am running locally. The same feature is also visable on Accuweather.com's radar.

10-4. I would guess mid level low at best for now. Models are running on it so who knows what may be by morning. I still think real estate will be a problem for formation.

Looking at satellite there is not much there at the moment...just some swirls, nothing special. Just interesting to see it so obvious on radar.

I'm going with split wave development approach, which is not anything unheard of. Per TWDs a few days ago, the wave producing activity in the carribean was splitting and we really have two things to look at here.
As per 1030 , Carolina residents should monitor for the development of a possible STS or TS from the "Bahama low"...which is the northern piece.
Review this link then see synoptic thinking below: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/RT/epac-wv-loop.html
Down the road, the southern part of that old wave is leaving moisture in SW Carrib. Thunderstorms not as impressive, but activity is just hanging around down there. Furthermore and most importantly (and not just the ULL pulling north over and east of Florida), is the Upper Low over Southern Texas that is digging South. As the Upper low around florida moves north and the Texas low moves south, don't be surprised to see some ridging develop. As the Texas low continues to move south into Mexico and Western Gulf, this can create a classic development pattern for disturbances in the SW Carribean, which gradually work there way into the central and eastern gulf. On the weaker points...One may also want to note that moister upper and mid level air may also continue to enter the area down the road.

Looks like we will have Bret sometime today.

Well the disturbance southeast of the Carolinas look like it has a decent shot at becomming either Tropical or Subtropical Storm Bret. IR imagery would seem to indicate that most of the thunderstorm activity is in the eastern semicircle at present. Will be interesting to see what the first visible images show within the next hour or so. And then of course, we have recon going out later too. If they find a cyclone of subtropical or tropical nature, expect warnings to go up for the Carolinas this evening.

Well first light visible imagery shows an exposed circulation near 30.1N 76.2W. This position is just to the west of the area of deep convection. The nearest convection to the north and west of the centre is currently in a band which lies just offshore of South Carolina and Georgia.
