The 12Z GFS may not be developing very much at the surface, but if you look at the 700-850mb Vorticity on the latest GFS, it does show some very weak broad circulation of 92L in the southeastern Gulf in about a weeks time. And like Sky mentioned, regardless of development, the steering pointing towards whatever 92L becomes heading towards the Gulf of Mexico.

Here at hour 186, Harvey moved through the Yucatan, into the Bay of Campeche and then into mainland Mexico.

cajungal no I don't believe the GFS. It's junk LOL. So I'm looking at the Canadian.

92L (future Irma) can be seen near Cuba, entering the Gulf of Mexico.

A sad day when we have to put more confidence in the "crazy uncle" than the GFS!

The steering pattern is definitely dangerous. The million dollar question is whether or not it develops. The overall upper environment looks great, but I think the big deciding factor is how strong does Harvey get in the Caribbean? If Harvey gets strong, it's outflow would shear 92L to death in the Bahamas. I think if Harvey stays weaker it would help 92L's cause tremendously.
