I think 98L deserves to be named just based on impressive convection.

No matter how many times you post a satellite image, it still won't become something until it gets better organized

Sorry, I just have alot to learn on this site and I know alot of people are mad at me now so I'll just shut up.

Not a problem. I know what you're talking about and I live in the area.

I understand that but it's not many times you see such a large (half the Gulf)complex of storms in late July in the GOM and it not be a TD or named system.

>>exactly just like I said several pages back, the low is over land so tropical storm formation is not possible at this time.

Bob back in the '80's did and then there was that landcane up in Michigan a few years ago. Basically "not possible" doesn't exist except in the extremes in weather.

Everyone take a look at Brownsville Nexrad, comments please

Is NDBC data down?

If you look at the visible sat images, there was clearly a center south of Brownsville, on land.

It does seems as the last few images show it dissipating, but as of now there is nothing over water.

What are we looking at/for? Sorry, I'm sure its obvious to some, but not me.

[Stormcenter]

I think he is talking about the spin ENE of Brownsville.
You can see it clearly on visible satellite too.

Their is a definate circulation ENE of Brownsville which is more than likely a MLC. What are the chances of this working it's way to the surface?

[sealbach]

there is a definite spin over water..maybe the low is trying to reform?

Still looks very intense whether or not this becomes a TC.

[Wpwxguy]

Yea , I think the reference is to the spin or NE of Brownsville. It is possible that a circulation center could be trying to reform over the water, but I would give it a few more hours of seeing it on radar before I jump on it. It is possible though. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I had not even checked out the radar.

That is what I was talking about over an hour before this post:

There is a vigorous MLC at 25.8N 96.5W. It is clear on the radar loops. Not sure what will come of it, but it is there...

I seem to recall some discussion in the past, in west gulf systems at least in ones that have a true LLC they normally increase in strengt while making landfall something to do with the curvature of the land mass. I suppose it could be and MLC interacting with the land. This is one maybe the pros can chime in on.

Shear is to high, just a big rainmaker for you guys.

If Daniel can be called a Tropical STorm when there is nothing left of him except very little cloud cover, then 98L deserves to be called Tropical Storm Chris since apparently there is more convection with 98L than there is with Daniel.

*Sigh*

It's not about convection....
