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

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

Oh well... guess I'll put out the sprinkler tomorrow. The kids will love it more than the plants, anyway!

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?

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

I follow your opinion on this Wxman, any reason why the NHC is saying this thing will remain where it is?
LOW LEVEL steering currents remain weak...take a look at the LOW LEVEL FLOW....its showing very weak steering currents...

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.
