The upper low is the swirl between Florida and Cuba...it is easy to see on this map (200mb vorticity):

I can't believe noone is agreeing with the NHC..I think this ULL given its location and presentation has a great chance of making it to the surface..
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LOCATED OVER THE BAHAMAS...CENTRAL AND
EASTERN CUBA... AND EXTREME SOUTHEASTERN FLORIDA...AS WELL
AS THE ADJACENT WATERS... ARE ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW AND
A BROAD SURFACE TROUGH. THIS WEATHER SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO DRIFT
SLOWLY WESTWARD OVER THE FLORIDA PENINSULA DURING THE NEXT COUPLE
OF DAYS. ALTHOUGH ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ARE UNFAVORABLE FOR
TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION AT THIS TIME... THEY MAY BECOME SOMEWHAT
MORE CONDUCIVE FOR SOME SLOW DEVELOPMENT OF THE SYSTEM DURING THE
NEXT DAY OR TWO.

yes, indeed. I mentioned earlier that storm overs and around Cuba persisted overnight. Visible show lots of low level clouds in that area. Pressures were fairly low overnight. BTW - Floater 2 is now positioned over this area. Bears Watching

Let's see....they say it should drift westward over the Florida Peninsula during the next couple of days, then they say "more conductive for some slow development of the system during the next day or two".....do they mean when it gets into the gulf, or do they mean just prior to making it over the Florida Peninsula?

Yes, i am wondering that myself. Actually this is the first time the NHC says conditions will become favorable for any system in this 2006 season
