Hi Dan, This early in the season, there should be: a) excessive wind shear, from the west to the east; b) cooler sea surface temperatures, especially over the mid-Atlantic region; c) general lack of excessive humidity needed for hurricane development. Therefore, it is highly likely, though not guaranteed by any means, that this storm will not develop into anything tropical or severe. That said, we can all watch it go from nothing to a Category 5 in less than a day, where upon it turns directly into the Canary Islands, which in turn stresses the geologic features in the mountains and cliffs overlooking the water, which in turn causes this huge chunk of Mother Earth to collapse into the sea, which further causes a massive tsunami that rockets across the Great Pond in a few hours, completely inundating everything and everyone in its path with a 300 foot tidal wave (with individual wave crests another 50 feet above that)... But hey, we're only speculating here... EK!!
