There is a low near or over Miami.


Yeah that is right over Miami/Dade county it looks like to me. best guess is from our Bahamas system for this low.

Reminds me a lot of the Katrina-genesis. Just the look of the map, that's all. Rita comes to mind as well- but that was further south. Anyone know how the upper levels were during those times? I would suspect that there was NOT a large upper low to the west of Katrina and Rita. But I cannot remember...

Jacksonville long range radar does seem to indicate some mid level cyclonic twisting just east of Daytona. Looks like a low is trying to form on the frontal boundry. Might be an area to keep an eye on.....MGC

It looks like the GFS develops an offshoot from the Bahamas system. It moves the first closed sfc low (Bahamas system) N along SE Florida with a trough, while a second low develops in the E Gulf of Mexico and moves W under a ridge.

Well, I see a tightening up to the clouds east of Daytona....also radar imagery is showing a tightening swirl in the same area. So that one, along with the area coming from the Bahamas would equal 2 lows....LOL, I dunno. I'm lost.

I think, and again this is an i THINK someone said the other day that the upper levels look VERY close to that of the Katrina/rita timeframe.

Someone needs to post a link then for me to confirm or deny. Power has just been restored to everyone (those who didn't get homes destroyed).

The town of High Island, Tx was tore up pretty good. Here's hoping nothing more comes their way!

It develops the first low near the Turks and Caicos by ~36 hours. It moves WNW toward Miami, and it moves N in SE Florida because of the trough off NE Florida. At the same time, a second low develops in the GOM. This run never develops the NE Florida low.
