Is 94L up by Cancun or further south off the coast of Honduras?

I guess it's another "wait and see," as usual.


I do not see how it would possibly make it to the northern Gulf Coast if it were to develop. West coast of Florida is as close as you get to the rain from it :lol:

Too much shear along the northern Gulf...and a wall of westerlies at 500mb. Sorry :cry:

To an untrained eye, I think it is east or SE of Cozumel.

I was thinking the same thing but that could be the ULL.

Like I said I have an untrained eye. Here to learn how to distinguish ULL/LLL apart.

Oh well... guess I'll put out the sprinkler tomorrow. The kids will love it more than the plants, anyway! :sprinkler:
A question: Does this look like it will pose any problems for deep sea fishing interests along the Northern Gulf Coast this weekend? The guys are dying to get out there and catch more fish to fry and I want to be sure they aren't heading out into rough seas. Anyone have any thoughts on that?

As usual, it takes them a little while to change their tune. No big surprise.

I'm slightly interested now... first time for this system.

If this develops it'll be another weekend storm, lol.

I don't understand why the NHC is calling for a "Slow NW Drift" while Wxman is sure the system will track to the NE by tomorrow afternoon.


I follow your opinion on this Wxman, any reason why the NHC is saying this thing will remain where it is?

Well...I for a while really doubted that this would develop
given the shear and ULL, but since the NHC says
conditions may become more favorable I
will keep an eye on it.

Looks to be one them slow cookers. Not looking great right now but if it's still there in he AM tomorrow, I'll give it 50/50. 36 hours I'll give it 75% as winds will become more and more favorable.

I think it will be great out there this weekend. Isolated showers and winds less than 10-15 kts. Seas maybe 2 feet.

This system looks to be a quick mover. I don't understand why they said NW movement in the 10:30pm tropical update. Looks like its moving swiftly to the NE.

LOW LEVEL steering currents remain weak...take a look at the LOW LEVEL FLOW....its showing very weak steering currents...

http://www.meteo.psu.edu/~gadomski/SATA ... ecent.html

Low Level steering is what steers weak systems...not upper level flow....correct me if I am wrong please...this is what I have heard said on
here many times and this is what I am basing this on. Upper level winds only affect the steering of STRONGER TCs....again...Correct me if I am wrong....

Thanks, AFM! That's the same forecast I read from our NWS office, but thought it might change if this thing gets into the Gulf. He insisted on going out fishing the day Barry went into FL and had a horrible time-- his back was sore for 2 days from all the wave action! Here's hoping it's just some beneficial rain for South FL.

I believe that is true. The uper level flow is scalping it though. It will need to hang in there at least until tomorrow to have a shot in my opinion.
