Satellite and radar views for 92L

From the 2PM EDT ATWO:

"A STRONG TROPICAL WAVE APPROACHING THE LEEWARD ISLANDS IS PRODUCING
DISORGANIZED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AS IT MOVES TO THE
WEST-NORTHWEST AT ABOUT 15 MPH.  ALTHOUGH STRONG UPPER-LEVEL WINDS
SHOULD PREVENT TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION...LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND
GUSTY WINDS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE LEEWARD ISLANDS AND PUERTO RICO
OVER THE NEXT DAY OR TWO.  THERE IS A LOW CHANCE...NEAR 0
PERCENT...OF THIS SYSTEM BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE
NEXT 48 HOURS."

It's a fighter. I would have been bullish and given it a 10%. Near 0% seems low. Models are being run on it again.

Since the floater is gone, here is a Puerto Rico satellite view:

Meanwhile, TD3E in East Pacific became TS Blas and is forecast to visit lots of fish.
