BOC spin looks good.

I have never started a thread here at Storm2K, but I just had to ask or get some kind of confirmation regarding the spin at 17N 93W moving NW. Is this an optical illusion? Sometimes this amateur gets too excited, so forgive me if I've goofed.

It hard to see any spin down there - perhaps it's the northern extention of a weak tropical wave that is moving NW, nothing more...

Thank you Frank, I suspected it was nothing. The visible loop using this product on the High setting gives you a better visual of what I'm looking at. It looks like it could be over the water in a few hours.

You're welcome - I still don't see nothing, er, anything...

I must be watching too much Beaver - I'm starting to talk like him...

Very weak June conditions in BOC. Check out possible redevelopment of 91E in EPAC.

These blobs are looking interesting tonight. I wonder if they will try to get their act together, or is that me I'm thinking about.

I also noticed that line of storms coming off the Western peninsula looks like it could be moving around 60mph to West. The loops make it look almost as fast as the Mach 5, really FAST. What's up with that? :larrow:
