Ingrid did indeed upwell cooler waters...
Pre-Ingrid:
Recent:
While SSTs are still warm enough to support genesis, it would have certainly helped to have waters 2C warmer than current levels... Keep in mind Ingrid sat over the same area for multiple days with 55+ knot winds. That will cause some mixing.

It’s looks like a dogs breakfast on satellite image. But i think wxman57 is spot on with his analysis of the forecast.

The SST's did cool down some but still sufficient to generate TC genesis. Could have been a combination of sinking air left over from the Anti-Cyclone that has been over Manuel and the slightly cooler SST's.
I don't see much coming from this other than some rain enhancement along the MX, TX, LA Coasts, shear increasing and dry air behind the front should be enough to keep this in check.

Hi SouthDade
The change in SST is too small to attribute to upwelling from Ingrid. It could definitely have lowered SSTs by 2-4F, but not by upwelling. That type of SST temp drop would happen under any good large low pressure area, and is due to the simple factors of cloud cover and cool rainfall. Also in this case there could likely have been some climatological drop in SST normally attributed from 11 to 18 September. It also didn't sit over the same area for multiple days - it moved slowly, but it kept moving. To clarify what I said earlier, there is always some small removal of heat from the ocean surface by any TC due to cloud cover and rainfall, but it is not significant for a relatively weaker storm such as Ingrid. For a moving storm only a cat 2 or higher actually sucks heat out of the water to the point where temperatures drop significantly down to 10 meters below sea level and lower. That is when upwelling of the cooler water below starts to occur.
Also, those charts are accurate only to roughly 2 degrees C, which means they could be off by 2 degrees C. For example, you could ask what caused the cooling just off of the northern Yucatan during that time.

I have been wrong many a time but after looking at 95L I think the NHC needs to send a priest to it and read it last rights

Re: ATL: INVEST 95L - Discussion - 50% - 50%
Thanks for the reply Pete.
Forgive me for the loose use of the term upwelling. You are correct that the mere presence of convective clouds can lower SSTs. I had also gone off incorrect anecdotal evidence of the duration Ingrid lasted over the BoC. I checked the past advisories, and in fact, Ingrid moved much quicker than I thought.
I also went back the last few years and found that during this time period, the BoC is in fact quite toasty unless a storm moves through. There should not be a climatological drop in SSTs. Nonetheless, my point was SSTs were lower than to be expected for this time of year due to Ingrid's presence. Yes, still warm enough for genesis, but not the typical temperatures we see this time of year.
It turns out the environment 95L is situated in is less favorable than originally anticipated. Development chances will most likely be steadily dropped for the next couple of TWOs.

Models are beginning to gel with this developing a bit more off the TX coast and with cool air diving down into northern MX behind the front I think this could increase convergence offshore TX considerably. Don't know if it becomes purely tropical or not but the possibility of very heavy rain from Houston area over the weekend eastward toward the FL Panhandle as next week unfolds certainly looks plausible.

Hey Ninel. I noticed that on the qpf this morning. It didn't show 20" but there is some deep tropical moisture coming up. Looks like a lot of rain for coastal Texas, then Louisiana and points east. Whether something ends up developing or whether there is just a tropical surge, there should be a lot of tropical rainfall this weekend into early next week for many of us Gulf of Mexicans.
Of note, and I realize this isn't the model thread, but GFS 06z brings down the big eastern high much further west. I didn't see that scenario, and I'm not sure it verifies, but what it appears to do is Lift up a wave of moisture, front maybe washes out as the high builds down from the great lakes which then sets up a block and keeps the mean trough farther west and bottled up in Texas. And in line with what joe b noted, early next week could be beneficial for SE Texas overall drought conditions even though there has been a little recent relief. Word.

lets hope texas can get some drought relief and all the rain doesnt fall further east.

The Euro may have a good handle on the situation. It has the front weaker/slower and 95L merging with the front along the TX coast over the weekend and stalling along the mid to upper coast. Could be a good rain maker for SE TX and south LA, but tropical development chances don't look too good at least initially.
