but as usual convection could refire at any time without bringing apparently an organized system, we should monitor as usual the situation, but with my untrained eyes nothing serious in terms of developpement....(TD or more) just cool amount of water could be expect tommorow as we're always in yellow alert.

Re: Little Perturbed Area east of Martinica trying to organize?
Satellite pix show a lot of that convection headed my way and sure enough, this morning opened dark with some light showers. It's getting darker by the minute and showers are becoming more numerous and heavier but there's no thunder (as yet) in my area. A number of street lights are still on because there's not enough sunlight to activate their sensors.
I love this type of weather!

I'm sure the satellite loop is deceiving me, but it appears there is a slight rotation w/ the convection.

Then I must have been in the eye for the last 2 hours


Strange weather. Persistent showers and I have my lights on inside the house because it's really dark.

Yep. I may end up doing the same thing shortly because it's becoming quite dark here too and I just heard the first roll of thunder somewhere far off.expat2carib wrote:...I have my lights on inside the house because it's really dark.
