I'm certain it probably isn't anything but... would someone check out
31.6/79? Then check buoys 41025, 41004 and 41002

Kind of reminds me of a tropical cyclone last year. It should be interesting.

I assume you're suggesting a circulation, but the winds that they are reading now just show convergence on a point towards the center of 41004, 41002, 41013, and 41025.

our local guys forcast a low there last night. I don't see any low level circ at this point, may be mid to upper levels. Thay also did not mention it being tropical, but anything like that with convergance at the surface bears watching.
