Circulation near Brownsville, Tx Coast..........

[Dean4Storms]

This circulation appears to be at mid levels. Still needs monitoring if it gets out over the Gulf.

Wonder if the eastward building ridge over Baja would ease it out in the Gulf? That trough has been pretty much parked for the last 24 hours or so.

I believe this is the MLC from the Hurricane from the EPAC. I can't see it going anywhere to quick but wouldn't take much to get it out over the Gulf!

[tropicwatch]

Brownsville is reporting 29.81 or 1009.47mb, that is starting to get down there.

[Dean4Storms]

Port Isabel Buoy..... 29.80"

little rotation

[TexWx]

Little spin 150 miles south of Galveston too?

Tough to tell on the iphone

[Dean4Storms]

Convection does appear to be waning this evening.

[TexWx]

Yes it does...

[xironman]

Nice burst this morning

[Nimbus]

Same thing as yesterday, the convection flares in the morning then the shear blows it off in the afternoon. This is the tail end of the front and the shear does seem to be easing. Sometimes a weak surface circulation needs to go puff puff a few times before they get invest worthy. The wave from the caribbean isn't here yet so I guess this would be declared a separate system.

Yeah, pressures have been dropping since early yesterday. Nice convective ball as well and pulsing. Doesn't appear NHC has any concerns or hints of keeping an eye on this though. There are strong SW shearing winds as well and I think the weak and rather wide/diffuse circulation is a mid-level based tail to the trough that extends from Florida SE across the GOM.

it look as if a spin is showing up on the visible about 150 SW of Galveston.

[TexWx]

Anyone have a good link to view gulf satellites, for iPhones?

[BigB0882]

I see something that could possibly be a spin below Galveston but I am not convinced it is. Might just be an illusion at this point.

There was a brief eddy in the low clouds off the TX coast earlier, but there's no LLC out there. Moderate to strong SSE winds prevail all across the NW Gulf. This isn't a system to be too concerned about unless you're in a boat offshore in rough seas.

[lrak]

wxman57 which way will all this mess move. East or West?

thanks
