There seems to be something going on to the south of Barbara's COC now... another convection burst, maybe?

Re: EPAC: BARBARA - Tropical Depression
The mid level circulation may be shearing off to the east, hard to tell. Doesn't look good at the moment.

That seems really far west when you look at satellite.

Re: EPAC: BARBARA - Tropical Depression
Yup. Satellite loops of course can often be deceiving, but it looks like the center has reformed ENE of that position right on the coast or a tad over the water. We need a satellite image of the lower levels to ascertain that, and or surface readings from the area.

Re: EPAC: BARBARA - Tropical Depression
Barbara made it across the isthmus a lot more intact than I expected. Is it a game changer? Too early to tell especially with the llc apparently now just offshore. Still looks like plenty of shear to her N so if there is a process of regeneration I would expect it to be slow. Once she gets further N and more into the shear I don't hold out a lot of hope for an intact core.

800 AM PDT THU MAY 30 2013
FINDING THE LOW-LEVEL CENTER OF THE CYCLONE HAS BEEN A REAL
CHALLENGE THIS MORNING. THE CENTER OF ROTATION THAT IS EVIDENT ON
VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH SURFACE WIND
OBSERVATIONS FROM STANDARD AND AUTOMATED MEXICAN WEATHER STATIONS.
IN FACT...THERE IS SOME DOUBT THAT A WELL-DEFINED SURFACE CENTER
EVEN EXISTS. HOWEVER...WE THINK THE MOST PRUDENT ACTION AT THIS
TIME IS TO MAINTAIN THE SYSTEM AS A DEPRESSION UNTIL ADDITIONAL
VISIBLE IMAGES AND SURFACE DATA BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CURRENT
ADVISORY POSITION IS IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT WITH THE SURFACE WIND
DATA.
THE INITIAL MOTION IS A VERY UNCERTAIN 310/3. MOST OF THE DYNAMICAL
GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT THE CENTER WILL NOT MOVE VERY FAR INTO THE
GULF OF MEXICO. SINCE THE SURFACE CENTER HAS BECOME VERY DISRUPTED
AND IS NOT EXPECTED TO MOVE FAR FROM LAND...THE FORECAST SHOWS THE
SYSTEM DISSIPATING IN A DAY OR SO.
ALTHOUGH THE CYCLONE SHOULD DISSIPATE SOON...HEAVY RAINS REMAIN A
SERIOUS CONCERN. DISTURBED WEATHER ASSOCIATED WITH THE REMNANTS
OF BARBARA IS LIKELY TO PERSIST OVER SOUTHEASTERN MEXICO AND
PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AMERICA FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...AND A
HEIGHTENED RISK OF DANGEROUS FLOODING AND MUD SLIDES WILL CONTINUE
OVER THIS REGION.

With the NHCs choice of verbiage, the handwriting is on the wall. They are following the typical timeline: retain the system for one or two advisories, allowing it to winddown and then drop it. A little disappointed I was looking forward to being on hand for a 50 or 100year event

Last time it was Northeast Pacific Hurricane Cosme that became Atlantic Tropical Storm Allison (June 1989).

I'm puzzled but happy
I'm still confused as to what is happening with Barb but I'm praying its in the BOC for real, a historical moment for us all to enjoy . No convection? No problem.
The NHC is cheating now . What can of worms does making this technically in the GOM open? I bet the NHC is not looking forward to such can being opened because then the media will jump and pounce, maybe other unknown procedures start .
