Looks like Invest91 will become Emily in the next 24 hours, good luck every one in her path.

Keep us informed of the happenings in your neck of the woods over the next few days.

Stay safe.

Looks like she is developing now as she trundles west - we should (I hope) only get some squalls and (not too strong) SW breezes as she passes by to the north of us (in Barbados).

The Tropical weather discussion is good for updates - http://www.hwn.org/data/TWDAT.html

They say :

1007 MB AREA OF LOW PRES IS APPROXIMATELY 500 MILES E OF THE
LESSER ANTILLES NEAR 13.5N53W MOVING W-NW AROUND 10 KT.
SCATTERED MODERATE TO STRONG CONVECTION IS POSITIONED WITHIN
90-120 NM OF THE LOW CENTER. SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES THAT
THE LOW DOES NOT YET HAVE A WELL DEFINED SURFACE CIRCULATION.
UNFORTUNATELY COMMUNICATIONS PROBLEMS HAVE LIMITED THE AMOUNT OF
DATA RECEIVED FROM AN AIR FORCE RESERVE AIRCRAFT INVESTIGATING
THE ELONGATED AREA OF LOW PRESSURE. THIS SYSTEM STILL HAS A HIGH
LIKELIHOOD OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE TONIGHT OR MONDAY AND
IF IT DOES...TROPICAL STORM WATCHES OR WARNINGS WOULD BE ISSUED
FOR PORTIONS OF THE NORTHERN WINDWARD ISLANDS AND THE LEEWARD
ISLANDS ON VERY SHORT NOTICE. THUS...INTERESTS IN THESE AREAS
SHOULD CLOSELY MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM.
