Area near 25N 65W

What is this feature? It seems to have a circulation and has improved in apperence quite fast since I have been watching it. I'm I on to nothing or is this feature worth watching.

This is just an upper level low, no reflection at the surface.

It does look very good, it's an ULL but the circulation is almost closed at the surface, or it seems that way.

yeah appears to have a surface reflection. convection is moderate but persistent. only problem is its vertically stacked with a upper low. however over time if it can maintain could transition into a more favorable setup.

Surface pressure has fallen over the last 24 hours:

12Z surface analysis has a 1012mb low:

But with the ULL over top, it's going to have a hard time becoming warm-core with higher wind shear approaching.

If it can develop a well defined center and convection increase a little more they might have to notice it. Its beginning to look a little subtropical atm. models are picking it up moving w to wnw towards central bahamas before (depending on what model ) weakens it or gets absorbed in the front.

The system is slowly beginning to become unstacked. Low-level flow is easterly and upper-level flow is westerly. This should put it on the divergent side of the upper-level low/trough that is currently saving it from destructive wind shear. Tomorrow = death.
