Not the wave going to Central America, there is a second wave behind 95L that is heading to the Northwest…

You are right, and you have highlighted the second wave that is headed to the Northwest. But, if you read the notes you will see that it has a 0% chance of becoming a tropical storm in the next 48 hours and a less than 20% chance of becoming a tropical storm in the next 5 days. (it will be passing SXM on the 5th day) I would think that it is not something that we should be worried about.

What does seem strange is how far south in the Caribbean the storm is. Or maybe that happens all the time and I just didn’t notice.

Yes, tropical storms or hurricanes are fairly rare that far south. As of now, the NHC has issued the following warnings regarding Potential Tropical Cylone Two:

"A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for...
* Bonaire
* Curacao
* Aruba
* Coast of Venezuela from the Peninsula de Paraguana
westward to the Colombia/Venezuela border including the Gulf of
Venezuela.
* Coast of Colombia from the Colombia/Venezuela border westward to
Santa Marta"
