It's far too early; firstly, we need a LLC. Secondly, the surface low will likely drift lethargically WSW and linger over the E GOM over the upcoming days.

Thank you both. I read on another forum that this system is more subtropical than tropical at the moment. Also does anyone else notice the dry air on the water loop?

towards the bottom- update from the morning, so old- but
says if the low goes over water then development is possible.

Infrared Loop shows expansion of convection off SW Florida. This is
going to bring a lot of rain to FL...

The rotation of the thunderstorms started this morning but it has become very pronounced tonight. With wind shifts at the surface maybe the NHC will mention it at 11 or they will make it an invest?

It looks to me like the circulation may have migrated a little further west, possibly now right under the area of deepest convection well offshore...

There is no LLC. The rotation is only found at the mid levels at this time.

I agree EWG...either way..the whole area should be moving SW with time, even further away from land, so this has a great shot imo...

Yes, I agree on that. I am speaking about the mid level circulation. It seems like it may be a bit further west now based on the latest radar trends.

I dunno, I bet we do have a broad LLC, after all those storms are surface based......

Something curling up to our NW. Warm breezes and showers. Heavy band moving in off Gulf.

Over 5 inches in the bucket from last two days. Light winds were steady from the south today. Warm tropical feel to breezes now. Frogs making noise outside now.

About 3-4 inches here I estimate in last 24 hours.
Tropical- looks like the convective cluster is intensifying
near SW Florida. Should be an invest soon.

I could not find any surface pressure drops yet, but these circulations that form on the end of fronts can take a while to work their way to the surface.
