This indicates to me that the invest will not be far behind and later today 92L will be posted.

Thanks for the link, Luis! I don't have it bookmarked and was just coming back to ask for it since you mentioned it in the other thread. :)

Looks like we have a weak closed circulation. Still elongated but interesting. :-)

From the water vapor loop it looks like ridge may be creeping west with our little wave as well. This should keep it on a westerly path for the short term :-)

Now what we have to see is where a LLC might develop in that big area of convection and then from that point the models can iniciate future track projections.

I have to agree cyc.. They usually make us sit and WAIT and WAIT before they move the floater... Kind of interesting.. Just got home and didnt even think to check the floater because i figured it wouldnt have been moved
