From wunderground at 5am 7/27:

Dorian is forecast to experience 15-20 kt of vertical wind shear
during the forecast period...as well as move through a dry
mid-/upper-level air mass. This combination should cause
additional weakening...with the cyclone degenerating to a remnant
low by 36 hr. An alternative scenario is that the system could
degenerate to a tropical wave at any time during the next 72 hr...

and thus dissipate earlier than currently forecast. Upper-level
winds in the area west of the forecast Point of dissipation are not
expected to be conducive for re-generation at this time.

Update: Erin is now classified as a TS but the path has not changed so far.

Just wanted to post this info on the unnamed system in the southwest GOM since CNN said yesterday it could 'explode'.

http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gtwo_atl.shtml

DISORGANIZED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS INCREASED NEAR THE
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE SOUTHWESTERN GULF OF MEXICO.
HOWEVER...THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION HAS BECOME ELONGATED AND LESS
DEFINED DURING THE PAST FEW HOURS AND SURFACE PRESSURES REMAIN
HIGH. UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN ONLY MARGINALLY
CONDUCIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT AS THIS SYSTEM BEGINS TO MOVE
NORTHWESTWARD TO WEST-NORTHWESTWARD OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
AFTER 48 HOURS...DEVELOPMENT IS LESS LIKELY DUE TO INTERACTION WITH
LAND. INTERESTS IN THE CENTRAL AND WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO SHOULD
MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THE SYSTEM THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS
SYSTEM HAS A MEDIUM CHANCE...30 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL
CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS...AND A MEDIUM CHANCE...30
PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 5 DAYS.
THE AIR FORCE RESERVE RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT MISSION SCHEDULED FOR
THIS AFTERNOON HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

If it does get stronger, likely will go into Mexico and Texas, which I understand needs a little rain...
 
Tropical Depression 7 forms; unlikely to threaten Florida

OUTLOOK: After emerging in the Caribbean near Puerto Rico, TD-7 is projected to grow into Tropical Storm Gabrielle, possibly as early as tonight. It is forecast to move over Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic on Thursday and then curve northeast out to sea.........

TS Jerry is shown turning to the E and staying in the Atlantic.

Here's the prediction for #1:

1. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED WITH AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE
OVER THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA HAVE BECOME BETTER ORGANIZED
OVER THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS...AND THE SYSTEM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO
DEVELOP INTO A TROPICAL DEPRESSION AT ANY TIME DURING THE NEXT DAY
OR TWO. THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO MOVE NORTHWESTWARD TO NORTH-
NORTHWESTWARD NEAR OR OVER THE NORTHEASTERN PORTION OF THE YUCATAN
PENINSULA LATER TODAY...AND INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF OF MEXICO
TONIGHT OR THURSDAY. THIS SYSTEM HAS A HIGH CHANCE...70 PERCENT...
OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS. AFTER
THAT...STRONG UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE LIKELY TO LIMIT DEVELOPMENT AS
THE SYSTEM APPROACHES THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO BY THE WEEKEND.
THIS SYSTEM HAS A HIGH CHANCE...70 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL
CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 5 DAYS. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS COULD AFFECT
THE CAYMAN ISLANDS...PORTIONS OF CUBA...AND PORTIONS OF THE YUCATAN
PENINSULA DURING THE NEXT DAY OR TWO. AN AIR FORCE RESERVE UNIT
HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT IS ON ITS WAY TO INVESTIGATE THE
DISTURBANCE.
 
Reader I've been waiting for this post, I think you might post in "up to the minute" where more people can follow the warnings. I'm not sure this area is followed closely.

Peace

Thanks, Peliman. I'll ask a mod about having it both places. This morning Karen seems to have moved a little more to the west.

I can't save this graphic at CNN that shows it even more to the west landing around Mobile:

http://www.cnn.com/2013/10/04/world/americas/tropical-storm-karen/index.html?hpt=hp_t2

The National Hurricane Center issued a hurricane watch for the area from Grand Isle, Louisiana, to west of Destin, Florida. The center of the storm is forecast to be near the coast within that area Saturday........

The storm, centered about 275 miles south-southwest of the mouth of the Mississippi River about 8 a.m. ET Friday, prompted the Federal Emergency Management Agency to recall some of its workers furloughed during the government shutdown. The agency also reactivated its Hurricane Liaison Team at the National Hurricane Center in Miami. FEMA officials in the Atlanta and Denton, Texas, offices are monitoring Karen........

"Karen is expected to produce rainfall amounts of 4 to 8 inches over portions of the central and eastern Gulf Coast through Sunday night," the hurricane center said. "Isolated storm total amounts of 12 inches are possible.".......
 
Is FEMA Ready for Tropical Storm Karen?
October 4-13

State emergency management officials on the U.S. Gulf Coast have been assured that the recent shutdown of the federal government will not affect the Federal Emergency Management Administration's response to Tropical Storm Karen.

The storm is expected to come ashore late Saturday or early Sunday on the Gulf Coast. A hurricane watch has been issued from southern Louisiana to the western Florida Panhandle.
