At appears the the cold front would catch it and sweep it out to sea.

[HURAKAN]

Based on the preliminary forecast it seems Bermuda should keep an eye on it.

[Weatherfreak14]

I can see a center exposed northwest of most convection.

South Carolina low

An area of low pressure has developed a few hundred miles off the South Carolina coast, along an old frontal boundary. This disturbance has been designated "95L" by NHC this morning. QuikSCAT showed a sharp wind shift but no closed circulation around 95L this morning at 6:34am EDT, and measured winds as high as 50 mph. Wind shear is about 15 knots over the disturbance, which is drifting south into a region where wind shear is expected to remain low enough to allow some development this week. I do think 95L will become a tropical depression, and most of the computer models also agree on this. The models disagree substantially on 95L's track, though. Steering currents will be weak in its vicinity, and 95L may spend a number of days wandering erratically. The Hurricane Hunters will investigate 95L Thursday afternoon

[JonathanBelles]

so we have a possible rainmaker and now a cold front appears?

I just got on and started looking at the models and was thinking the exact same thing.

[Sanibel]

The LLC is still distorted to the north and engrained in the front. Needs to wrap before it goes tropical over the Gulf Stream. Strange south movement.

[Tampa Bay Hurricane]

This needs to bring rain to ockeechobee!
I think a tropical depression hopefully with a lot
of rain to fill the dry lakes.

Tropical Weather Outlook


Statement as of 11:30 am EDT on August 29, 2007

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico...

A tropical wave located about 900 miles east of the Windward Islands
is producing showers and thunderstorms. Although this activity is
currently disorganized...environmental conditions are expected to
gradually become more favorable for development as the system moves
westward at 15 to 20 mph.

An area of disturbed weather over the western Atlantic is primarily
associated with a non-tropical low centered about 260 miles
southeast of Charleston South Carolina. Upper-level winds could
become a little more favorable for development during the next few
days...and an Air Force plane is ready to investigate the system on
Thursday...if necessary. The low is expected to drift southward.

Showers and thunderstorms primarily located over the Yucatan
Peninsula are associated with a tropical wave. This activity is
expected to move over the Bay of Campeche during the next day or so
and will be monitored for any signs of development.

Elsewhere...tropical cyclone formation is not expected during the
next 48 hours.

[Tampa Bay Hurricane]

Is a ridge supposed to build in? The models are picking the cold
front theory. But there is evidence of a ridge with the SE flow across
Florida. Not -removed-, but wondering about that ridge.

[CrazyC83]

Will this become Felix or Gabrielle? I think there is a good chance over the next couple days.

[HURAKAN]

If there is something that has a good chance of developing in the Atlantic at the moment is this system. Very similar kind of development experienced Florence in 2000.

[HURAKAN]

This needs to bring rain to ockeechobee!
I think a tropical depression hopefully with a lot
of rain to fill the dry lakes.

It will have to move very close or over land to produce rainfall because where it's located at the moment only dry air is what 95L will allow over Florida.

[Lowpressure]

North Carolina really needs some rain. The ridge is suppose to surpress 94L but not 95L?

[HURAKAN]

[RL3AO]

Interesting. The NHC thinks 95L is a more immediate threat for development.

[HURAKAN]

Not just interesting, must likely a fact.
