LLC May Be Forming in Eastern Gulf
Now that I'm at work, I can see what appears to be an LLC forming beneath the mid-level circulation close to 26.7N/87.7W.

Floater 2 is on that area as well, and seems to back that up.

Great Posts! Clearly the LL inflow is starting to wrap! Good thing it's much further north..less time to actually intensify..well hopefully..Maybe more rain for the panhandle versus the peninsula as well. Although the SW flow should get going and the bumpers off the coast look intense for AM action.

no change
No real change out there yet. The actual LLC appears to be up a bit to the north of where I put that "L". Looks like the NHC will wait for recon to upgrade it. Not really much wind around it - 15-25 kts.

Looks like your GFS scenario may play out after all :owxman57 wrote:No real change out there yet. The actual LLC appears to be up a bit to the north of where I put that "L". Looks like the NHC will wait for recon to upgrade it. Not really much wind around it - 15-25 kts.

we are starting to get rain here. had BEAUTIFUL cloud columns earky this morning. the panhandle needs no more rain, but I'll take a TD or TS over a Cat IV or V hurricane anyday.

There is a bit more convection than this morning but the majority is east of the low and that is because of some shear from the SW.

I agree with the potential of a slow moving system with this LLC in the Gulf of Mexico. The central Florida
forecasts (from the National Weather Services in Ruskin, FL [Tampa Bay Area], Jacksonville, FL and
Melbourne, FL) have showers and thunderstorms with flooding rains possible for the next 60
hours in association with this system.
Then, this weekend a weak cold front is expected to stall across northern Florida as the low moving
up the east coast (according to the National Weather Service).
What difference does it make that their is some southwest shear which is pushing the convection to
the northeastern portion of the convection? The worse weather with tropical lows in the northern
hemisphere is normally on the northeast side.

Gulf development?
Please check out the links below.
One is the radar loop out of Mobile, AL.
and the other is the visible satellite floater.
You pretty easily see where the center is.
Does not look like it's moving NE or NNE, IMO.

Re: Gulf development?
The LLC they are going to investigate..is to the south//The trough coming down through the se will keep this nne or ne movement from changing..Stormcenter wrote:Please check out the links below.
