Other floater is up too now (if they both were not up before):
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/floaters.html
98L in Atlantic and an unofficial unnumbered invest (which that floater page does sometimes).
That is an odd little fella down south moving out of the Carib, moving east. I have been watching the mid Atlantic one for a few days and had not seen the one in the Carib. (although it sounds like there is a relation between the two) Very odd movement for there. No mention at all in the Atlantic outlook, only discussion. I guess they think it will go away. Interesting to see that down there. That seems like something that can happen when a front hangs around in the Gulf for a bit. Just odd to see it down there.
From the NHC discussion:
"TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
705 PM EST SUN NOV 17 2013"
"CARIBBEAN SEA...
EXCEPT FOR THE FAR EASTERN CARIBBEAN...A MIDDLE TO UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE DOMINATES THE BASIN WITH DRY AIR SUBSIDENCE SUPPORTING
FAIR WEATHER. IN THE SW BASIN...THE MONSOON TROUGH AXIS EXTENDS
ACROSS THE COSTA RICA-PANAMA BORDER EASTWARD TO NORTHERN
COLOMBIA AND IS ENHANCING ISOLATED SHOWERS S OF 10N. AN UPPER-
LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE CENTRAL ATLC EXTENDS AN AXIS SW TO THE
LESSER ANTILLES AND SUPPORTS A SURFACE TROUGH EXTENDING FROM
13N59W TO 10N59W. THIS AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS GENERATING
RAINSHOWERS FOR SOME OF THE WINDWARD ISLANDS. GENTLE TO MODERATE
TRADE WINDS ARE FORECAST ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION FROM THIS
EVENING THROUGH THU."
"ATLANTIC OCEAN...
AN UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE CENTRAL ATLC EXTENDING INTO THE
FAR EASTERN CARIBBEAN IS SUPPORTING THE FRONTAL SYSTEM IN THE
SPECIAL FEATURES ABOVE. SCATTERED SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM ARE N OF 17N BETWEEN 42W-50W AND N
OF 23N BETWEEN 50W-57W. A SURFACE TROUGH IS E OF THE WINDWARD
ISLANDS EXTENDING FROM 13N59W TO 10N59W WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS FROM 11N-13N BETWEEN 57W-59W.
OTHERWISE...SURFACE RIDGING DOMINATES W AND E OF THE FRONTAL
SYSTEM. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE OFF THE NE FLORIDA COAST EARLY
TUE REACHING FROM NEAR 30N73W TO CENTRAL FLORIDA TUE AFTERNOON.
THE SURFACE TROUGH E OF THE WINDWARD ISLANDS WILL REMAIN
STATIONARY WHILE DISSIPATING THROUGH MON NIGHT."
