Aric, you can see the low level clouds in that part of Cuba starting to get sucked to the east on the close-up.

yeah it looks like it. but need a little more motion than that to be conclusive. also watching all the low level clouds along the coast.

You'll need to look at the highest resolution you can, but look underneath the cirrus clouds just to the east of the blow-up over Cuba. The low level clouds are racing from the WSW.

Right.. though it could just be an outflow boundary. we will know soon enough ..

[Hurricaneman]

There is evidence of a LLC, probably a depression but the low could be enlongated but if so it could be a depression or storm the next 12 to 24 hrs

I would go 80/90 with this and star advisories at 5

[Aric Dunn]

very few observations at the moment. there is only one that is showing a SSW to Sw wind. unable to tell how legit that observation is.

D r e z e e
What barrier/low lying islands are you thinking might need to be evacuated?

[PSUHiker31]

It's moving so close to Cuba that the drag from the island is probably helping to spin it up

[tailgater]

I’m not seeing anything close to a llc yet but the mid level circulation will likely work it’s way down by tonight, if the t-storms continue over the same area.

Already there has been a thread since Saturday.

the last 30 min or so.. starting to show more and more ene motion the low level Cu clouds along the coast.

Ukmet rides it down from new Iberia down upper Texas coast then to corpus

You can't see it on the gif Aric just posted? If not, maybe you are going blind. Lol.

Gonzo will fly late Monday afternoon to sample the upper enviroment.

ASCAT scan shows a weak circulation on the south west edge.
