The surface obs in S. Texas still do not indicate a LLC. Just a bunch of E and SE winds:

Lets hope that this just moves on North and gets out of here, hopefully bringing rains to the west and north in areas that need it..

What bothers me and after taking AFM's and 57's ideas in account, is how this system is acting tonight.

The history of this disturbance has been to lose the majority of its convection from early evening and throughout the night, and flaring up again towards the morning.

Tonight it has maintained the convection, and in the latest images, there is a tail so to speak on the outflow extending all the way down to the southern BOC and into the EPAC.

The name is Chris for the next storm, not Christ.

It is all semantics, just like that near-Beryl in late June, whether it gets a name. The impact will be the same whether it is TS Chris or an undesignated tropical low...

If this were to become Allison 2.0, I think it will do so as Tropical Depression 3 - it is too close to shore. It needs to move farther east to have enough time to become Chris.

CrazyC83, I disagree. The difference between a TD and a 35-40mph TS is not that much in terms of time or strength. I believe it has mainly to do with organization pattern. Many times the NHC skips depression and goes straight to TS at 35 or 40mph. Depends on recon and satellite presentation.

Many posters on this board are posting that time is running out on 98L but it sure doesn't seem like it's moving anywhere fast at the moment and still looks impressive.

I don't think time's running out. It's got a little time, and I think something will form here.

what are the chances a LLC could form even further east, like Cindy did?
There is another burst of convection blowing up near 27N and 95W

It will be very interesting to watch this buoy overnight as it is almost in the center of the most powerful ball of convection ENE of Brownsville. It's pressure has dropped to 29.81 inches now. Usually, because of diurnal changes, the pressure rises and falls throughout the course of the day, but over the last few hours, this buoy's pressure variations have been changing so that whereas normally the pressure should have been rising for the last two or three hours, it has been holding steady--signalling perhaps a large pressure fall overnight.
