Re: ATL: INVEST 97L - Discussion
I see a naked circ around 14.8 and 65.8. Looks like the circ we saw earlier. I don't know if that is the main feature or a decaying one.

Convection is also increasing with the disturbance to the east of 97l... it could be a while before one wins over the other but that's just my opinion.

-THE ABOVE IS THE OPINION OF DREW ONLY
-THE ABOVE IS THE OPINION OF DREW ONLY
No change:
A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE EXTREME EASTERN CARIBBEAN SEA
IS PRODUCING DISORGANIZED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. UPPER-LEVEL
WINDS APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR SOME DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT FEW
DAYS...BUT INTERACTION WITH THE LAND MASSES OF HISPANIOLA AND
PUERTO RICO COULD INHIBIT TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION AS THE SYSTEM
MOVES WEST-NORTHWESTWARD TO NORTHWESTWARD AT AROUND 10 MPH. THIS
SYSTEM HAS A MEDIUM CHANCE...30 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL
CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS...AND A MEDIUM CHANCE...50
PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 5 DAYS.
REGARDLESS OF TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION...LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL AND GUSTY WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO AFFECT PORTIONS OF THE
NORTHERN LESSER ANTILLES OVER THE NEXT DAY OR SO...AND SPREAD OVER
PUERTO RICO BY LATE WEDNESDAY. AN AIR FORCE RESERVE RECONNAISSANCE
AIRCRAFT IS SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE THIS DISTURBANCE TOMORROW
AFTERNOON...IF NECESSARY.

I think the NHC would have mentioned the disturbance east of 97L if it really had a chance of developing.

I don't think so. There would have to be a rapid increase in organization for it to be declared a depression at 11 pm. Highest wind speed on buoy 42060 was about 25 kts and lowest pressure was about 1008 mb.

It's more likely to be 5 or 11pm tomorrow evening depending on if the plane goes and finds what it's looking for.
This is NOT a forecast just my opinion.

I would tend to agree here, given that there still doesn't quite seem to be a well defined LLC at the moment. That said, if it continues its organization and remains under the upper high, Gabrielle by this time tomorrow would not surprise me.

I agree with you, if it continues this organization. Maybe by 2:00 pm or 5:00, is it my eyes or does it appear to have a made a jump to the north verses dues west.

We've had disturbances tease us this year so I want to see if 97L convection persists through the night before I get excited......MGC

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L - Discussion
Vorticity coming in now within radar range from San Juan, look to the SE of P.R.
This is far away so any rotation seen on radar is in the mid levels for the mean time until it gets closer to the radar site.

Looking good and in the morning I think we will all have a better idea when and where TS Gabrielle forms.

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L - Discussion
Actually looks to be a TD now so I wouldn't be surprised with an upgrade tomorrow after the first VIS SAT shots come up and convection has grown/persisted overnight. If its ramping up early, then the recurve scenarios are looking increasingly likely unless this thing gets torn up over Hispanola. The jump NW may be real or apparent if the circulation is just tightening up.
