Invest 94 is still hanging on

#1 Postby Valkhorn » Sat Oct 18, 2003 11:51 am

A very interesting scenario is developing with Nick and 94L.

If you take a look at the visible loop you can clearly see 94L is still a decent LLC even though its view is obscured somewhat by Nick's upper level environment.

Nick has weakened considerably in convection, and this may actually help 94L to grow a little more. We could even see energy transferrance later down the road from Nick to 94L, and 94L may even win out the battle.

It seems 94L is moving more quickly than Nicholas. 94L may get drawn into Nicholas's much larger circulation in a few days. Convection had increased in 94L this morning as Nick weakened, but Nick is strengthening again and shear is increasing across 94L.
