EPAC Flare-Up
Looks like an area of convection has flared up near 92W and 9N. My sat. loop isn't working right so I don't know if this has been persistent convection. Thoughts?

That is the invest that was out 2 days ago that some models suggest some development so let's see what happens with that area.

Interestingly enough, some of the models (GFS and ECMWF) are hinting that this convection might meander after 48 hours and eventually pull north across Mexico and into the Bay of Campeche. If any wave entrains energy up that way or perhaps convection getting enchanced from a rogue ULL to the west, we could be looking at an interesting scenario 8-12 days out.
Always remember that in a retrogressive & trof splitting pattern in June (eastern trofs setting up further and further west), EPAC stuff can easily get entrained into the Gulf. It doesn't usually happen when convection develops into something stronger, but if remains relatively disorganized, watch what happens next week.

Models do
Show it making the move from west to east. The run this morning had the low much further north then it is. Lets see what happens.
