Mother Nature is running out of targets in the GOM. Let's pray this one fizzles over land.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THRU SUNDAY)
UPPER LOW OFF THE EAST COAST OF FLORIDA APPEARS THAT IT WILL BE
SHUNTED NORTHWARD ALONG THE ATLANTIC COAST AS IT GETS PICKED UP BY
SHORT WAVE TROF MOVING THROUGH THE NORTHERN PLAINS STATES. THIS
PATTERN WILL KEEP AREA UNDER A WEAK UPPER RIDGE AND RAIN CHANCES WILL
BE HELD AT 30% OR LESS THRU THIS PERIOD.



that is some good news, i just dont like the uncertainty with the models

Even if the system were to head on a more westerly track it would
likely be ripped apart by the FL Peninsula...so GOM for right now there is
not too much to worry about. But do keep monitoring it.

I know you are trying to be optimistic, but we just saw a storm that was not "ripped apart the FL Peninsula"...granted, the storm went across the swamps, but the Florida Peninsula is by no means a shield for storms. :D

Look at the water vapor loop there is flow from west to east thatt should protect the northern gulf coast.

At worst this storm will hang around south florida where the toe of that ridge has pushed across the peninsula.

Yup we'll have to wait and see.

It has gotten really windy here in the last hour. Gusts easily 22-28 mph.
Could 94L be developing into a TD as we speak?

TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
1030 PM EDT SUN SEP 4 2005

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON HURRICANE
MARIA... LOCATED ABOUT 475 MILES EAST OF BERMUDA.

A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS LOCATED JUST OFF THE SOUTHEASTERN
COAST OF FLORIDA AND OVER THE NORTHWESTERN BAHAMAS. WHILE THIS
SYSTEM HAS CHANGED LITTLE IN ORGANIZATION THIS EVENING... UPPER
LEVEL WINDS APPEAR SOMEWHAT FAVORABLE FOR DEVELOPMENT. IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT THIS NEARLY STATIONARY SYSTEM COULD DEVELOP INTO A
TROPICAL DEPRESSION DURING THE NEXT DAY OR TWO.


ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH
TUESDAY.

FORECASTER KNABB


10:30 PM TWO for 94L

This from Wilmington NWS...



.LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY)...
FORECAST WILL CONTINUE TO LARGELY HINGE ON THE PROSPECTIVE LOW
FORMING EAST OF SOUTHERN FLORIDA. MODELS SEEM TO BE CONVERGING ON
A SOLUTION THAT WILL SHOW A LOW RIDING UP THE EAST COAST OF THE
PENINSULA VERY SLOWLY AND TURNING TO THE NORTHEAST JUST NORTH OF
THE SPACE COAST. GUIDANCE DIFFERS ON HOW FAR NORTH AND HOW QUICKLY
THE RESULTING MOISTURE IS FLUNG UP THE COAST, AND ALSO AS TO HOW
FAR INLAND IT PENETRATES. CURRENT FORECAST IS MOLDED AFTER A
TONED DOWN VERSION OF THE GFS, BRINGING SOME MOISTURE ACROSS THE
COASTAL WATERS AND POSSIBLY COUNTIES TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH
THURSDAY. WILL PROBABLY EMPHASIZE THE BEACHES IN THE ZFP. WHETHER
THE LOW MOVES UP NORTH AND THEN NORTHEAST AS OPPOSED TO JUST
MEANDERING THE BEACHES OF FLORIDA MAY END UP DEPENDING ON ITS
DEGREE OF BAROCLINICITY. A FAIRLY BAROCLINIC SYSTEM WILL TEND TO
START MOVING NORTH AND THEN NORTHEAST TOWARDS THE INDUCED LOWER
PRESSURE ALONG THE LOW LEVEL WARM ADVECTION ZONE. A MORE
BAROTROPIC SYSTEM WILL BE FREE TO HANG OUT AROUND FLORIDA UNTIL
STEERED BY AN EXTERNAL FORCE.

Lets wait and see where the low level center forms.

This morning whatever circulation there is looks elongated and sinking southwest.

The model runs would look different if they initialized a TD further southwest.

I like the LBAR but 94 could even come up the west coast of Florida if it continues its extrapolated motion.

ImageImage Any idea on steering currents that could possibly influence this storm away from the GOM and SE LA? Can't go thru this again!!! Can't even get home yet.

Looks like this is beginning to develop now. Convection is increasing this morning and radar shows thunderstorms circulating around the low pressure area just east of Miami.

A 1010 MB LOW IS CENTERED NEAR 25N79W BETWEEN THE N BAHAMAS AND
THE S FLORIDA COAST...DRIFTING SLOWLY SW. THIS IS A BROAD AREA
OF LOWER PRESSURE WITH LITTLE ORGANIZATION AT THIS TIME.
HOWEVER...THE UPPER LEVEL WINDS ARE MARGINALLY FAVORABLE FOR
FURTHER DEVELOPMENT BUT COULD BECOME MORE FAVORABLE OVER THE
NEXT DAY OR TWO. THUS...THIS COULD BECOME A TROPICAL DEPRESSION
DURING THAT TIME. AREA OF SCATTERED SHOWERS/STRONG THUNDERSTORMS
ARE FROM 25N-29N BETWEEN 74W-80W.

Luis, drifting SW just like Katrina! Does this look like a real possibility to you?
