This area near the Bahamas is impressive

This is the general tropical discussion area. Anyone can take their shot at predicting a storms path.

Those reds mean high clouds/cumulonimbus clouds of at least 30k. Some of them most likely do have rain, while others are just high clouds.

Just noticed what looks like a second circulation along the south coast of Cuba near the umm bay of pigs beach head. That can't be the upper level system can it?

Looks like this system could become a big rainmaker for us, and even though this is an ULL this is certainly not "nothing". :roll:

Is this the correct area(South of Cuba) or is it the area in the Fl straits(North of Cuba)?

Well the area you pointed out is part of the system but the main area is north of Cuba. IMO the area you pointed out in the graphic will probably split and become a seperate system.

I asked on the last page but it was the last post so i dont think anyone saw it I hate when that happens. when will this rain event finally start? Tonight? It has been taking forever! Not that i am excited about it I just want to get it over with already. I saw Homestead had some possible funnel clouds associated with the weather a little while ago, I am guessing that is the first storms of this area begining to move in? That is what I cannot stand with these things, when I hear funnel anything my good nights sleep goes out the window, we are in a mobile home so i sit here watching the weather and waiting for the weather radio to go off :)

Is the convection from the Bahamas system moving towards Miami or is it moving only North.. I can't tell exactly from the radar loop.

Still just an upper level feature. Convection near the upper low center is weakening/gone now. I can detect an elongation of the upper low and slow northward movement beginning (as the front approaches the region). Chance of tropical development is very low. Still, it could form into a frontal low off the Carolinas in 36-48 hours. Here's the latest sfc plot with satellite. As you can see, straight SSE-S flow across Cuba, the FL Straights, and south Florida.

So your saying this low is moving north right now? Because I was looking at the loop and this is moving towards the WNW.
