Doesn't surprise me it has a code. I'm surprised the NHC dropped it this weekend.

Here we go again, tropics picking back up quickly.

Wxman57, yeah I agree for now its jsut a wave axis with fairly high shear. EVen the most agressive models don't start development till about 48hrs time so its safe to say that any development shouldn't happen before then.

Just need to keep watching to see when the shear does ease off. For now seems to me the ULL is helping to keep the convection going quite well.
