So do you believe it will survive any shear that may impact it and make it into the GOM as a hurricane?

That is too be expected since the TUTT is just to North and West. There is plenty of inflow coming from the South and West. There will be no rapid intensification but no "poof" either.

Looks like we will not have a TS at 11AM...going to have to wait for recon which will fly in the next forecast cycle (this afternoon). I would guess they are waiting to see if the deep thunderstorms are over the center as opposed to sitting on the northeastern edge of it.

Shear the only limiting factor at this time...

Shear the only limiting factor at this time...if TD 5 exists on Sat evening in a state of organization similar to, or any better than, what we see this morning, we believe an intense Hurricane Ernesto will threaten the Central/Western US Gulf Coast late next week. I'm happy to respond to specific inquiries.

Well officially Jeff Masters is incorrect...we'll have to wait for a plane.

The center is very hard to find.

Chad Myers at CNN just a little while also thought it would be named at 11am.

At least this won't be a Florida storm for once looking at the models were looking good here in SE Florida.

It's amazing how many different opinions we have from Mets on the same system. Some think it will be named at 11 and others don't. Isn't everyone looking at the same data?

The speculation about if at 11 AM it will be upgraded or not will end in a few minutes.My guess is that and yes I am speculating now :) they will wait for recon this afternoon.

I hope it's NOT a Texas or Louisiana storm either. I'm still hoping the shear gets the best of TD5.
