They're sure taking their time with this advisory.
I don't blame them though, they've got a lot of warnings to consider and probably a pretty lengthy discussion to write.

Re: ATL: INVEST 93L - DISCUSSION
Hurricane or not, this thing is MASSIVE in size. IF it really is drifting under the upper level anti-cyclone I think it could reach strong TS status before landfall. Just my uneducated opinion.

Indeed - I hope this thing goes into the Yucatan and knocks some of its growing cajones asunder

The problem facing the NHC is these large, sprawling systems take a while to consolidate. I don't think there's doubt this will ultimately become a depression, but the last thing they want to do is initiate advisories and watch it fall apart in 12 hours.
Plus, I would imagine the minute they do, I would guess crews will start disassembling equipment at the deepwater site. It takes 5 days to pull everything up, so the NHC has to be careful not to pull the trigger too early.
Either way, there's a lot of land and not much time over water left for this system...
However, both 93 and 94l are evolving from westward moving tropical waves...in June! What does that tell you about the next 3-4 months?

good to see you back Mike! Your posts are always insightful. Will you be running with the hurricanes this year with Mark?

Holy Carp! BUT unfortunately, it doesn't look like a fish and doesn't have anywhere or any way to fizzle unless it gets onshore and soon.
Wow, I can't believe how the sat presentation has changed today while I've been working. Didn't see anything from about 7 a.m. until now and the difference is amazing.

Lots of time, lot will change, but from that map, look out Corpus Christi and Port Aransas.

I'm assuming that track will bend to the west further out? I'm a bit shocked at the track. I thought it would be further into Mexico based upon what I've been reading and hearing.
All I can say is, if that track holds, it is not good news, because that keeps it over water much longer. Let's hope that once it emerges that a tropical storm is as strong as it gets.

Re: ATL: TROPICAL DEPRESSION ONE - DISCUSSION
From that trajectory, could the wind field possibly get the Texas coast involved in the oil spill?

A little further north than I thought it would be. Let us wait for the 0Z model runs...
