I don't know if it's got anything to do with it, but it sure is windy here this morning.

the gusty NE winds are caused by a tight pressure gradient between the low over the NW bahamas and a huge high over the eastern US.

Didn't Katrina start out in this area? I hope not a repeat scenario :eek:

Katrina revved up in this vicinity.

A little lower, yes I think but in the Bahamas area. :eek:

I agree more like the Central Bahamas. The convection seems to be north of the low pressure. Look at Miamis short distance radar.

Hmm hopefully it comes south a bit and strengthens to 55 kts. Would be a nice day.

Can these things be named tropical depressions/tropical storms without having a Hurricane Hunter investigate?

We're having a "nor'easter" kind of going on. I wasn't sure if you were asking about the wind or the disturbance.

According to the NHC discussion there is a 1009mb low around 26n 79w drifting NW:
1009 MB LOW IS CENTERED BETWEEN ANDROS ISLAND IN THE BAHAMAS
AND THE SOUTHEAST COAST OF FLORIDA NEAR 26N79W DRIFTING TO THE
NW. THE CENTER OF CIRCULATION IS NOT THAT WELL-DEFINED IN MIAMI
RADAR IMAGERY BUT THE OVERALL CIRCULATION APPEARS TO BE BECOMING
A LITTLE STRONGER IN SATELLITE IMAGERY. DEEP CONVECTION IS
BECOMING A LITTLE MORE CONSOLIDATED ESPECIALLY N OF THE CENTER
AND WINDS HAVE INCREASED TO 25 KT AT FREEPORT AND SETTLEMENT
POINT BAHAMAS. SCATTERED MODERATE CONVECTION FROM 24N-28N
BETWEEN 74W-80W INCLUDING OVER GREAT ABACO...GRAND BAHAMA...
ANDROS...AND NEW PROVIDENCE ISLANDS AND MOVING WWD TOWARDS THE
FLORIDA COAST. THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO DRIFT NW BENEATH AN UPPER
LEVEL ANTICYCLONE AND BE NEAR OR OVER FLORIDA DURING THE NEXT
SEVERAL DAYS. TROPICAL CYCLONE DEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE WITHIN
THE NEXT 36 HRS IF THE SYSTEM REMAINS OVER WATER.
:roll:

Watching the radar ... I haven't seen much sign this thing is moving at all.

Looks like we'll be having rain for a while ...
