Disturbed area north of Panama - (Is invest 99L)
That area just developed recently and I'm wondering if that could be the spawn of future Richard.

Re: Disturbed area SE of Paula
It seems like it could be because the GFS runs have initialized future "Richard" in that same area where the blob is..however, Richard is not born until Sunday/Monday, so it may not be that mass there but maybe something will form there
GFS has been the only model that has shown anything with "Richard" so I need to see more consensus from other models before I jump on board..however, most of the models busted on Paula (especially the Canadian, which has never had Paula as a closed low, even now when it's a Category 2), so I'm hesitant to even jump on board if more models start showing Richard
We will see, but we are getting close to the second peak of the season whereby more storms hit Florida...also the fact that it hits around Wilma's anniversary is eerie...this weekend we should have a better idea

Re: Disturbed area SE of Paula
Anti-cyclone is anchored.
Outflow from Paula has moistened mid-levels.
Nothing currently on 850mb vorticity except the persistent one just north of Panama that never goes anywhere.
If some convection fires and / or persistent stratiform precipitation develops, then the upper troposphere could develop a PV anomaly due to diabatic heating.
It could in turn work it way to the surface as a top-down development.

Re: Disturbed area SE of Paula
Currently some LL to UL drying has occurred looking at TPW and WV.
However theta-e forecast is showing moisture will be returning into the area.
It looks like a TUTT may spin up around the Leewards in about 100 hrs which could fire off some shear induced MCS's.
That in turn could be the spark that initiates a mid-level PV anomaly.
It looks like something may be off the coast of Nicaragua in about 180 hrs.

TUTT is currently at 14N 44W
This will be the one that will linger around the area and eventually move a bit west closer to the islands.

12Z GFS Ensemble members will likely raise an eyebrow or two.

Re: Disturbed area north of Panama
Boca, I edited the title to put North of Panama, to be more specific about the area of interest the models are despicting for possible development.

Re: Disturbed area north of Panama
18Z GFS is back with our feature in the SW Caribbean by hour 114. Looks to be a general monsoonal gyre between the EPAC and SW Caribbean. Should be interesting to watch unfold.

Re: Disturbed area north of Panama
King Richard is back to being suicidal in Central America/Yucatan on the 18Z gfs. The king is very wishywashy.

Re: Disturbed area north of Panama - Code Yellow
18z GFS seems like a new version of Mitch but with a shorter life, it really bears watching.
