July Nearing End, Tropics Waking Up

The tropics may be waking up again, albeit a bit slowly. There is a slight chance we may have a named system or at least a depression in July. And right now the main focus is on the area northeast of the Bahamas, being referred to as investigation 98L.
This system likely will not affect any land area. It has a fairly good shot to develop into a system over the next few days or so. A recon flight may be scheduled for this afternoon (Sunday) to check it out (Edit: This flight has been canceled now). There is a chance for it to become a tropical depression within the next few days. Right now convection is still too far away from the center and isn't really organized enough to get going today, but if it persists it could develop.
If it does form, like mentioned it will likely move north and northeast avoiding land areas, (Both the US and Bermuda) entirely, so it will likely be a fish spinner type system.
Beyond that, there is not much else going on, although into August we start expanding the area we look for systems to develop. The only other outside chance is something happening in the Gulf, as shear in that area will start to weaken by the end of the week.
