I have cleared everything. The goofy thing about it is the loop is correct, it's just the single image keeps bringing me to a blob off the Mexican coast on Aug 7 1145 utc.

New Canadian available on FSU experiemntal page. When even the Canadian shows nothing big for the next 6 days, you know it is going to be quiet.

Anyone have an opinion? our mets say nothing about this and say only a 30% chance of showers. Temps have been 97 with heat index of 105 to 115 everyday! no rain in almost two weeks! this is way too hot even for Florida :eek:

TPC in its 2 p.m. discussion doesn't think there is a LLC yet:

TROPICAL WAVE IS ALONG 73W/74W S OF 30N MOVING W 15-20 KT. THIS
WAVE HAS SHOWED UP WELL IN RECENT QUIKSCAT AND ASCAT PASSES.
SATELLITE IMAGERY STILL SHOWS THAT THE FOCUS OF THE LOW LEVEL
TURNING IS JUST E OF THE CENTRAL BAHAMAS FROM 23N-27N BETWEEN
71W-78W. BAHAMAS METAR DATA TO THE S OF THIS TURNING ARE STILL
SHOWING LIGHT NE TO E WINDS...SO AM STILL NOT CONVINCED THERE IS
A CLOSED SURFACE LOW WITH THIS FEATURE

well that possible turning around 27 77 may be a llc forming, i can't tell YET

but the thing is cruising just south of due west and will be over West Palm Beeatch/Jupiter around 9 pm

so it has about 6 hours to do something if it is anything

on a side not i was just booted of the beach in boca due to a nasty storm that came onshore definitly squally weather moving in gusts to 25

I can see at least two weak rotations on visible satellite--one north of Abaco Island with slowly increasing convection and the other one without any convection northwest of San Salvador.

that san salvador rotation seems to have lost what little energy it had /maybe transferred it nw to other spin just north of abaco

should be watched for next 6 hours, mabe a depression could form

at least this thing is moving swiftly

on second thought the san salvador spin got sheared to death and that ull is large and difficult for me to pick out where it's influence ends

curiously there does seem to be a spin north of Abaco Island could something be starting to form-- will have to wait until the GOM to really get going if at all.

The latest WRF model is showing a very weak closed low drifting off the coast of Louisiana and Texas from 90-126 hours (Sunday to Tuesday).

Folks look at the LLC trying to form north of Abaco (northern Bahamas). It's racing off to the west towards Jupiter in Palm Beach County...good thing this thing doesn't have much real estate left in front of it...

coincidentally its starting to get more organized right when Dean is on land and weakening..I still think Dean had something to do with this not developing...

You can see it here

It's looking better by the half-hour. Moving quite fast into Florida. Will likely exit Florida fairly unscathed tonight or early tomorrow. May definitely be something to watch in the Gulf over the next three-five days.

Tomorrow may end up being interesting. My estimate is that this circulation center will "make landfall" at about 8-9 pm tonight and cross into the Gulf by around 3-5 am. Melbourne AFD is talking about the whole wave.
