But that trough is supposed to degrade soon, creating a weakness somewhere along the Gulf Coast.

Last was Franklin 2017, which was extremely similar to Earl of which you're probably thinking.

Recon descended, but it's not reporting anything but FL winds and estimated pressure. No SFMR.

Essentially the only hills you'll find across much of the Yucatan are gonna be of human origin, often Mayan ruins; near coastal regions like the road from Majauhal to Chacchoben at least are incredibly flat and marshy. With attendant tree damage still lingering from Hurricane Dean's vicious winds.

Colors of lost purpose on the canvas of irrelevance

Not a meteorologist, in fact more of an idiot than anything. You should probably check with the NHC or a local NWS office for official information.
