Small circulation over the Bahamas?

It doesn't look like much, but could this turn out to be anything? Look off the SE tip of Florida, near Andros Island

Actually, it's not a ULL. The ULL is diving SW in the eastern GOM. I have noticed this feature the past 18 hours. Don't think much of it right now, but is is interesting.

These ULLs can sometimes drill their way down to the surface though, especially if allowed to fester over the Gulf Stream for a long time. It bears watching.

If nothing else, it may interact with whatever that piece of energy progged to come off the southeast coast this weekend ends up being.
