From Dr.Master's Weather Underground....
Josephine
Tropical Storm Josphine formed today off the coast of Africa, just like the long-range GFS model has been predicting for the past week. The GFS has done very well forecasting up to a week in advance the recent string of African tropical waves that have developed. Josephine looks like it could be a problem for the Northern Lesser Antilles Islands a week or so from now, but it is too early to be confident of this. The tropics are too busy to spend much time on Josephine. I'll say more on it later this week.
Elsewhere in the tropics
There's a tropical wave over Africa behind Josephine that the GFS model forecasts will develop into a tropical storm next week.
