12z WRF/ETA develops a Low in Eastern Gulf.
Not seen anyone mentioning this so thought I'd post it.

If this were to verify, what would be the source of this low in the Gulf? Is it the mess in the Caribbean?

you can see a little piece of energy from the extreme southeastern GOM heading in that direction... still have the ULL along the northern GOM firing off some pretty good afternoon thunderboomers along the MS coast... nice IR loop link

It would have to be that area. Maybe this should be moved over to the Western Carribean thread. Something must be going to jump out of the box in the eastern gulf tonight or tomorrow. I have been monitoring pressures and although normal right now they have been steady falling for the past six hours at the Keys and Fort Myers...

It's that swirly thing they are seeing near Mobile/Pensacola. Too far out right now (i.e. nothing to watch) but last year and other years they sure can blow up like that right in our faces.
Past history is why I personally won't discount this thing.
Though I really wish those swirly pictures and the potential storms would go play in the middle of the Atlantic.

Birmingham NWS longe range discussion this afternoon.......
AS FAR AS TROPICAL WEATHER IS CONCERNED THE DGEX IS STILL AN
OUTLIER. BOTH THE GFS AND DGEX HAVE AN UPPER LEVEL LOW BUT THE
DGEX IS THE ONLY MODEL TO DEVELOP IT. THE PLACEMENT OF THE
TROPICAL FEATURE STARTS OUT IN THE CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO ON
SATURDAY /THIS SEEMS REASONABLE AND HAS AGREEMENT WITH THE GFS/ AND
MOVES IT NORTH TO THE LA/MS BOOT AREA BY SUNDAY MORNING. IT THEN
BRINGS THE SYSTEM NORTH ALONG THE EASTERN MS/WESTERN AL LINE
THROUGH MONDAY WHEN IT GETS CAUGHT UP IN THE FRONT AS IT SLOWLY
MEANDERS AROUND CENTRAL ALABAMA ON TUESDAY. THE DGEX STILL HAS NO
SUPPORT FROM OTHER LONG RANGE MODELS SO WILL DISREGARD. STILL AM A
BIT CONCERNED ABOUT SEVERAL MODEL RUNS OF A TROPICAL FEATURE...THE
GOOD NEWS IS THERE IS NO RUN TO RUN CONSISTENCY ON PLACEMENT.

btangy, I agree and it's been doing this all season with the new resolution. It'll be interesting to see how it behaves with formed systems. I didn't pay much attention to it with the A-C storms though.

Here's the full 84 hr animated loop of the 18Z NAM. Pretty scary scenario for west coast FL residents. Maximum tropical cyclone potential over the loop current & NE GOM. Wouldn't take much to get going in 88 deg water.

My goodness. I just saw right offshore here Pinellas County max winds could support up to 165 mph. Not that it would but just the fact that right offshore here it could support that.

More like 165+ kts.

Ok. I really didn't need you to make things worse.
