If GFS is even close to right on shear, this would be in ballpark 20 m/s (~40 knot) shear when North of 25º, which would seem to suggest nothing would develop.


I don't see how. Wouldn't the cold front (I use that term loosely as our 88/89 highs for the week are only expected to drop to a chilly 84 on Saturday) keep whatever it is well east of TX/SW LA? Since it's not really expected to amount to much, it doesn't really matter, but I just thought that whatever it becomes would sail off to the NE toward the eastern GOM.

I'm ready for a real cold front... my Cowboys jacket is waiting for me.

Looks like just a wave with a bit of sheared turning on the end. But the wave is sort of moving towards Texas.

Pretty good cu field here already w/o any tropical influences.


I'm more interested if the Pacific system eventually tries to come over the Sierra Madre with a middle level center once the cold front gets here, ala Hurricane Rosa, when the San Jacinto river scoured out gas pipelines and caught fire.

I can still see the cu field and the blue skies between to the East out the window, although the heavy rain shower is reducing the view somewhat.


NOAA Nesdis has a 99L floater that seems very dark at the moment.

This doesn't even appear to qualify as an invest now. Just a weak wave axis with scattered thunderstorms. Development chances about zero. Northern part of wave is only 175 miles off the Louisiana coast. The thunderstorms should be steered northward and move inland between LA and the FL Panhandle on Tue/Wed.

Naked spiral in BOC. If that front over Texas catches it and turns it into the deeper convection associated with the front we could see a change in depth to this. Watch for N then NE turn.

Well the NHC gives 99L hope. I'm the kind of person that never
writes anything completely off in the tropics until it's very obvious.
I don't think that is case right now but you would not be looking at anything
more then a rain maker and some stiff winds at worst right now if something
were to develop (TD or TS) beyond what it is now. The chances are low
for that right now. IMO

My "surfing gut" says it will develope :cheesy: SCA already here, but to darn choppy, need some offshore winds.

My "meteorological gut" says you won't even know this weak disturbance passes 300-400 miles to the east. There's just nothing to it but a couple of thunderstorms, and they're already moving NNE toward Louisiana. The SCA are for thunderstorms ahead of a weak cold front, not this weak wave.

8:05 PM TWD:

GULF OF MEXICO...
THE SOUTHERN EXTENT OF A RIDGE IS OVER FLORIDA AND THE NE GULF
OF MEXICO PRODUCING ELY SURFACE FLOW AND FAIR WEATHER. A 1006

TROUGH EXTENDS NE FROM THE LOW TO THE CENTRAL GULF ALONG 25N92W
27N88W. SCATTERED MODERATE CONVECTION IS OVER THE CENTRAL GULF
FROM 22N-24N BETWEEN 90W-92W...AND FROM 25N-28N BETWEEN
87W-91W. A PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH IS OVER SE TEXAS MOVING E
PRODUCING SCATTERED MODERATE CONVECTION INLAND FROM 29N-32N
BETWEEN 94W-96W. IN THE UPPER LEVELS...AN UPPER LEVEL HIGH IS
CENTERED N OF THE YUCATAN PENINSULA NEAR 22N89W PRODUCING UPPER

THE GULF OF MEXICO HAS UPPER LEVEL SUBSIDENCE. EXPECT...THE

TROUGH MOVES E DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS. EXPECT CONTINUED
CONVECTION WITH BOTH SYSTEMS.

In other words no Tropical Cyclone from this.However,the good news is that beneficial rains will fall in areas that need it badly because of the deficits of precipitation.

It's interesting that Phil Klotzbach & Dr. Gray predict 10 more hurricane days in Oct/Nov. So far this year, we've had only 10 hurricane days. Seems unlikely we'll see so much activity given the pattern out there now. But I wouldn't rule out another few named storms, maybe even a hurricane.

Oh, and Bones says "stick a fork in it"...

It probably wont develop, but it doesn't know it's dead yet!
Looks like the best low level structure to date and some t-storms firing right over the center, I think it could gain a shear TD status. The fat lady may be warming up though, let's wait until the morning to see what it looks like this could be last chance of anything tropical coming ashore this season.
