GoM?
any one know what the models are saying for the GoM? Floater 1 is back to the GoM and it looks like there MIGHT be some type of circulation starting up by the looks of the cloud patterns along with a very small amount of convection starting to fire around it.

Way too early any of this after last year. Not emotionally ready. Give me to more months to force myself to be ready for 2006. June 1st will be an omnious day for many of us.

Hurricanes dont know what time of year it is. But as was said earlier all there is down there is a lot of dry air and high pressure. It could be Septmember and it still couldnt develop under these conditions.

GULF OF MEXICO...
A DEEP-LAYERED LOW IS NEARLY STATIONARY OVER THE BAY OF CAMPECHE
AND IS CUT-OFF FROM THE STRONGER WESTERLY FLOW LOCATED INLAND
OVER THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES. THE LOW HAS A LARGE
CIRCULATION...ROUGHLY ABOUT 500 NM TO ITS N AND W...WITH A
RELATIVELY DRY AIR MASS FLOWING AROUND THE PERIPHERY AND
BECOMING ENTRAINED TOWARDS THE CENTER. A TROUGH HAS BUILT TO THE
SURFACE FROM 20N91W TO 27N87W AND SCATTERED SHOWERS/TSTMS HAVE
FORMED OVER THE NE QUADRANT OF THE LOW FROM 23N-27N BETWEEN
87W-91W. OTHERWISE...THE ATLC SURFACE RIDGE HAS BUILT WWD ACROSS
S FLORIDA AND IS PRODUCING BROAD SLY LOW-LEVEL FLOW ACROSS THE
REGION. THE MOIST COASTAL AIR MASS HAS PRODUCED AREAS OF FOG AND
LOW STRATUS FROM S TEXAS TO CNTRL MISSISSIPPI/ALABAMA...BUT
DAYLIGHT IS QUICKLY BURNING THIS OFF. A WEAK COLD FRONT
CURRENTLY OVER THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND TEXAS WILL MOVE
OFF THE N GULF COAST TONIGHT AND EASE ACROSS THE E GULF/FLORIDA
BY SAT MORNING. MOISTURE WILL BE RATHER LIMITED AHEAD OF THE
FRONT SO ONLY ISOLATED SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED ALONG THE BOUNDARY.
It is a circulation but, but as Luis said there is an trough associated with this feature .... too much dry air entrained .. Probably will get picked up by the next cold front coming through.
