Which way is this supposed to move? North under the ULL? Looks like the spin is directly over victoria :)

This energy came up a bit on the models thread while we were waiting to see what Hanna was going to do. Several models had low pressure at the north gulf (LA and then AL/FL). We had some spins, but nothing was organized though there is a strong boundary today. Yesterday, the NAM 3km started showing waves of rain coming through. The 3rd or so was some energy peeling off from Hanna and moving up. We're under a solid re-firing line of thunderstorms at the moment, but that surge is probably for tomrorrow.

HRRR sort of spins it up near Brownsville but without much convection. So it's just some energy raining itself out I guess.
