Early but this is a new disturbance.

#3 Medium 60% chance of development. StormSurf has it going west.

Not sure what you are looking at as "new" but there have been the same three disturbances..99l going towards LA or FL, TD 8 that ws heading for NC but now predicted to veer east, and Gaston heading for Europe.

Nothing listed remotely near or heading towards SXM

The one coming off of Africa in the next day (or so) is going to have to be watched closely. The models I've looked at have it coming very close to SXM sometime next weekend. It looks like it has the potential to be a big one.

?????...should be an "X" off the coast of Africa if there was a disturbance brewing

NOAA

I use NOAA also. To see the new disturbance, click on the 5 day outlook.

I will be on Grand Cayman the end of this week so I am trying to keep an eye on potentials
