This site says "nothing gonna form out there"

Unless something is a pop up surprise.

Close in development happens that way often.

Will see. Who knows.

Not holding my breath.

As the days go by...we get deeper into October and the Hurricane Season is on it's last gasps and often when that happens things go wonky in various places and something can still bubble up even in an El Nino Season. I am not holding  my breath. You'll note I did not chase after that 20% spot off of Africa as I didn't think NHC would stick with it. To be fair it's not "dead" in the water and it may pop up again somewhere further down the line. Time will tell.

The Gulf may see action again, closer in from something that forms there at the end of a Front (as we have a lot of them coming down the pike) or from a gyre down below. Low expectations. Sometimes something forms in the Atlantic at the end of an old front that's not ready to die out and something develops ...but low expectations. 

I'm taking it day by day and seeing what comes my way.

I'm also on a staycation this week enjoying the relaxing time as I'm resting from my Columbus Day Vacation Guests. I call it that as my father was very proudly born on Columbus Day and I'm not gonna take that away from him. The new washing machine arrived and is set up and works incredibly. The sky is blue, the windows are open (tho occasionally the AC comes on if it gets too warm) and I'm just letting the day go by as my friend says.

You can see the wide view above that shows nothing is really happening. Again until that old yellow area totally goes poof not counting it out totally. The fronts are visible. As for the EPAC .....are they on Ulysses or Zion yet? Not sure, don't care. I'm sorry but I'm an East Coast girl and my concerns are from Texas to Maine and everything in between. So sipping Sweet Tea and figuring out what to make for dinner. Trader Joes Plaintains may be involved, Lord they are so good. Almost feels like being back "home' in Miami.
