Interesting linear feature due east of South Florida

[boca]

This is a trough that looks like convection is forming on the west side of it and moving west towards S FL. I think this was the trough that sucked the life out of 92L. This might not be anything but it has my interest.

Boca you just beat me to it

Something could develop here as the ULL winds are light and SSTs are warm. The trough is fizzling out and has left a lot of deep convection.

Wouldn't this be interesting if something developed here. Historically storms have developed near that location this time of year so climatology says its possible.

this blob continues to grow -- lets see if there is persistence.

Hopefully it will at least increase the rain chances for South Florida as it moves into the area.

Been looking at that area too, looks like the energy from ex-92L
is enhancing a stretched surface trough, which now looks to be consolidating near the western end of it. Don't see any spin at the surface, doubt that it will develop, though it should approach South Fla in a couple of days to enhance the rainfall chances.

Looks like the convection being enhanced from an Upper Low moving through the SE Bahamas.

Always watch something that lingers in that area.

there is some spin about 26 north 63 west...Bastardi was mentioning this in is tropical update on Accuweather this evening..he put it in the florida straits by early next week.

Is this the same spinning that I see on this IR http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/pr/loop-ir2.html going to the Bahamas (68W/23N)?

I see a weak turning @ 22n 71W very hostile conditions right now and seems to be headed WSW to southern Cuba. Maybe in a few days when it's getting into the western GOM. That's where everything wants to develop this year.

Dean and Felix did not "want to develop" in the GOM. The Atlantic Ocean (the real ocean, not the gulf) is 100000000 times larger than the GOM so don't make an all-inclusive statement that "everything wants to develop" in the GOM....this forum has become like "Talkin' Gulf of Mexico".

alright, i got that off of my chest.

Is there any shear around this "linear feature due east of South Florida"?
If not, it may develop similar to Katrina (in the initial stages... ).

And this is the "blob" that our local met was referring to that will head west in the GOM...I agree that everything has ended up in the Gulf this year close to TX with the exception of Andrea and Barry. This must be the season for TX storms...

rather unimpressive "TX storms"...I was surprised when Humberto was upgraded to a minimal hurricane...its satellite representation just looked like a flare up of afternoon thunderstorms the size of Rhode Island.
Anyways, Houston seems to have lucked out a bit from damage and significant flooding. But that luck will not last forever I guess.

Accuweather says to watch this area in the Atlantic for development early next week.
