Pressure down to 1002 mb in #12 ... soon to be Henri
Pressure continues to fall in #12 ... and furthermore, RECON verifies tropical storm force winds southeast of the center with a 38 kt FLIGHT level wind....(49 mph) ... roughly translated ... that equates to 40 mph...

If the trough misses it..it could hang around off the west coast for 5 days..I read somewhere..I dunno how strong it could get..it's moving slow!! I will leave this to the experts!!Amanzi wrote:I know the system does not have much time to do anything much, and I think I read about shear being a factor here, but what are the chances (if any) of Henri getting a bit stronger than a TS?
SF care to venture your opinon here ?

Not only that, the system seems to be getting much better organized... the anticyclone to its south seems to be ridging over #12 (and that can be noted by the outflow establishing over the SWern side of the TC and even more so noted on WV imagery with the ULL in the Western Gulf not only losing it's influence, but now is enhancing poleward outflow

...THE OPERATIONAL SUITES ARE FLIP-FLOPPING ON
THE PROGRESSIVENESS OF THE SYSTEM WHICH IS A PROBLEM GIVEN THE MAIN
IMPACT LOOKS TO BE FLOODING FROM THIS SYSTEM. TROUGH AXIS DROPPING
DOWN LOOKS RATHER BROAD AND LARGELY STAYS NORTH OF THE AREA...SO THE
SLOWER TRACK INITIALLY BY TPC LOOKS ON TARGET AS THERE IS NOTHING IN
THE OFFING TO ACT AS A REAL KICKER FOR THE SYSTEM. GIVEN SLOWER
MOVEMENT OF THE SYSTEM...HAVE A LITTLE TIME ON FLOOD WATCH

I don't think the trough misses #12 at least in the short-term but expect a relatively slow movement for the time being ... Del might be a little high on the 60-70 mph ... but 50 mph doesn't seem out of the question. There is potential in a few days that a building ridge behind Fabian does, however, stall the system (in the ATLantic, however) ... and could pose a threat to the East Coast with heavy surf and some coastal flooding...
Given the recent pressure falls and the strong enhancement of the outflow being set up by the upper low in the Western GOM ... this has me a little concerned, but only just a little.

Thanks SF..they are calling for 10-15 inches of rain with higher isolated amounts..thats enough to deal with!!Stormsfury wrote:I don't think the trough misses #12 at least in the short-term but expect a relatively slow movement for the time being ...

Bron, this system does have time to do something. It is moving very slowly over warm waters and has some ingredients that are in favor for development.
Things remain to be seen while at the same time we monitor the situation, as the steering of this system looks to be slow for several days to the west of Florida, over the state and off the Atlantic coast.

Not so fast on that Ark!
Southerngale & Ticka...we better keep our little boat here until the weekend! We had a HUGE t-storm at 3:00 today in the Deer Park/Pasadena area. 2+ inches of rain in less than a hour. It is still raining and it looks like more on the way! galvbay
