Thanks for that update Lou. Lets hope we get a few inches of rain over the weekend like Barry. I see the forecast is pointing to Saturday for the best chance of rain at 60%. I'm sure once 94L moves further north that will change since we are still a few days out.

CARIBBEAN SEA...
THE MOST ACTIVE WEATHER AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON IS OVER THE W
CARIBBEAN WHERE CLUSTERS OF SCATTERED MODERATE/ISOLATED STRONG
CONVECTION ARE GENERALLY N OF 15N W OF 80W TO OVER CUBA AND TO
THE COAST OF THE YUCATAN PENINSULA. THIS ACTIVITY APPEARS TO BE
INDUCED BY SEVERAL FACTORS. THE MOST PERSISTENT HAS BEEN
DIFFLUENCE ALOFT BETWEEN A SMALL UPPER LOW SPINNING OVER THE NE
YUCATAN PENINSULA AND A BROAD UPPER RIDGE THAT EXTENDS FROM
COLOMBIA TO OVER W CUBA. A SURFACE TROUGH EXTENDS FROM THE
HONDURAS COAST NEAR 15N88W THROUGH A WEAK 1009 MB LOW NEAR
18N87W TO THE W TIP OF CUBA NEAR 22N83W. THERE ARE A FEW SMALL
MID/LOW LEVEL CIRCULATIONS EMBEDDED WITHIN THE AREA BUT TROPICAL
DEVELOPMENT IS NOT EXPECTED AT THIS TIME. THE E CARIBBEAN IS
DOMINATED BY AN UPPER TROUGH THAT EXTENDS FROM THE E ATLC
THROUGH THE CENTRAL ATLC. E OF 80W IS FREE OF SIGNIFICANT
MOISTURE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE
THE TROPICAL WAVE OVER THE LESSER ANTILLES. MODERATE/STRONG
EASTERLY TRADE WINDS ARE OVER THE S/CENTRAL CARIBBEAN.

Thanks for the updates. It looks like the shear is blowing the system almost sideways. Are the shear conditions supposed to "ease up" in the near future ? (assuming shear is causing what I see )

94L has become better organized with more thunderstorm activity.My guess would be the Windsheer is starting to calm. Also expect that computer models to shift further east.
