90L continues to pulse up and down
This morning it was organizing quite well as the LLC was inside the convection to the south side at that time but this afternoon it has gone to the down trend once again as the LLC is semiexposed and convection has weakened.The problem it faces is some shear from the SW that has weakened it this afternoon but now the question is if it will pulse to another up trend to organize or this is it for 90L.

Up and down, all around, driving forecasters upside down.
This is the theme song for 90L.

I have a feeling the up and down will be coming to an end soon. Looking at the extended GFS it shows conditions becoming more favorable in the longer range. Of course thats not really earth shattering because Climo shows that by Mid-August things should heat up. Lets see if the GFS is on to something about the longer range pattern or just on something;):)

Why would you think that if 90L's convection wanes that it doesn't have a chance? This was said a few days ago when the convection "disappeared," only to "reappear" this morning.
Again, as long as we have a circulation of some sort, development isn't out of the question.
Unlike the period of time when the upper levels were not condusive for development (earlier this weekend), now conditions are expected to be favorable for tropical development to the west and west-northwest of 90L.

90L
Note on the latest high-res visible that there are two vortices - one near 17.4N/55.7W and one farther south near 15.3N/55.3W. The northern vortex appears to be a mid-level feature. The southern vortex is that same small vortex that has been tracking southeast of the convection. The disturbance looks pretty pitiful, by the way.

I guess it could be the theme song for Hurricane season in general.

Well this morning is in the up swing once again but will it fade once again this afternoon as it did yesterday?Time will tell but if this trend of this morning sustains then recon will go out this afternoon.
