Dry air and shear is not letting it organize.

Wow... it is pretty impressive, but like Cyc said, dry air and shear is interfering with its organizing.

Did someone cover up that nekked swirl??? I'm not looking!!!! :o :oops:

Uh nothing to look at anyway except a little convection. Ain't gonna make the dance, IMO. But it could surpise us if it can hold the convection. Actual chances? 0%-5%.
