it doesn't really matter. That trough is so large it will cleanup everything in the Atlantic that is north of about 20N-25N


IMO Not really. The front will not be as strong when it comes off the east coast.

What evidence do you have to support this? This is going to be a massive trough.

Wow massive trough. What are the temps going to be like behind it. I would love to have some cooler weather.

if you watch the loop here you can see it will not be as strong. As it moves off shore you can see it weaking. I didn't say it wasn't a strong front but it weakens as it moves off shore. JMO

I'm not sure about Florida, but they are predicting Upper 40's/Mid 70's on Wednesday here. That's pretty unusual for Mid-September. We were near 90 today.

One of the final vis images of the day, convection is somewhat wrapping around the center. If it doesn't increase overnight, though, it won't be able to develop before flying off to the NE.

If diurnal maxima doesn't have an effect on this system, development then is out of the question.

I think think this system mainly in the upper-levels and will remain non-tropical.

Notice it gives it a ST number, which means it looks more subtropical than tropical.

Just scatered convection beneath a large upper-level low surrounded by dry air. Chances of development are low. The frontal system moving off the east U.S. Coast tomorow will sweep it out to sea. Little chance of it developing before then.

I know, I'm more surprised that it's 1.5 given the organization of the system!!!

Tropical Weather Outlook

Statement as of 11:30 am EDT on September 18, 2006


For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico...
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane
Gordon...located about 1125 miles west of the Azores...and on
Hurricane Helene...located about 1090 miles east-southeast of
Bermuda.

A non-tropical low pressure system located several hundred miles
east-southeast of Cape Hatteras North Carolina is drifting eastward.
Development...if any...would occur before the system merges
with a cold front in a couple of days.

Elsewhere...tropical storm formation is not expected through
Tuesday.

If this did Develop What would it do with Helene? Even if it was just a TD. It is moving to the ENE from what I can see this evening.
