Said there was a feature off the coast of Mexico that was being watched but I don't see anything here on the forums is that true?

Maybe he was talking about Invest 90E, off the southwest coast of Mexico in the Pacific Ocean?

There's an interesting feature there in the Bay of Campeche (southwestern Gulf of Mexico) but I haven't seen the NHC mention it at all.

In this mornings' Tallahassee NWS Area Forecast Discussion they made mention of the Euro showing a Low moving Northward from the Tropics to the coast of Louisiana but they are not buying it because no other model was showing this. Maybe your Met was talking about the same feature.


Excerpt from Tallahassee NWS AFD:

The GFS allows another frontal
system to approach from the northwest, while the Euro brings a low
northward from the TROPICS to Louisiana by Sunday night. Clearly
this latter scenario would bring a lot of WIND and rain to the
region. Other model solutions do not support the Euro at this time
and we will base this forecast largely on the GFS.
