Tropical wave with some rain early next week - not my opinion, but NWS and other forecasters. I'm a parrot.

Invest 99L is the nearest wave that is projected to make Bermuda moist. Invest 90L is further east, and will cause a bit of rain in the VI Monday the 13th.

Cheers, RickG

After watching so many storms rolling down the conveyor belt, its interesting to watch one make the tight right turn. St. John got off nicely. St. Martin not so easy. Bermuda is going to get a taste.

There's another storm with a 10% chance of developing five days out. Odds are the VI won't see any weather.
