Hopefully this forecast pans out!
Low pressure combined with plenty of tropical moisture will work its way towards the Rio Grande Valley and Deep South Texas this weekend, increasing the chances for showers and thunderstorms across the area. Coastal counties are likely to see the greatest rainfall totals through Monday. Slower or heavier activity will have the ability to produce locally heavy rainfall with nuisance flooding in poorly draining or low-lying areas.

Maybe now more like 26N drifting north. Been watching it most of the day.
Must be a mid level vort, I don't see any surface obs indicating a surface low there.
I see what you are talking about....right on queue the convection fizzled tonight but I see a MLC out there....convection trying to make a come back over it...

Re: ATL: INVEST 94L - Discussion
Radar and satellite loop appears to show that we now have a vorticity developing east of Corpus Christi but by looking at surface reports if it is at the surface it is very weak, there is a buoy just south of this area of vorticity that has been reporting SW & W winds all morning long. Running out of time over water for anything to get going at the surface, IMO.

YAWN!!! That is how I feel about 94L. So far it has been less than a yawner here in my area of Houston on the West side. Maybe the moisture will continue to move N and make it this far inland tomorrow. We REALLY need the rain. I know, watch out what you ask for.

Is 94L washed up? Has it become just an area of clouds and some moisture. Had a slight drizzle on and off all day here - very cloudy.

Yeah those charts are fine - I really like them. Only problem is they don't go far west enough. But the 500 mb is the key chart and that does show the ridge building westward. Hopefully it is weak enough on the bottom side that it allows 94L to get north enough to cover most of Texas with rain. You can use these charts from NWS to watch it: http://mag.ncep.noaa.gov/
Choose a model - GFS is fine. I personally don't care for the NAM. Then choose a time 12UTC is the 8AM run and is available around 11:30 AM EDT. The 00UTC run is the 8PM run and available around 11:30PM. choose namer (north America) and the choose 500_rh_ht (Relative Humidity and heights). Choose the loop and then you can watch the 500 mb ridge build westward over the next few days. Watch the moist, high RH air at mid-levels shifting westward. Nice for Texas if it holds!
Thanks OP! I really appreciate you for that! I love the fact that I can learn so much from you guys here @ Storm2k!

Something's wrong when you regret, things that haven't happened yet!
Re: ATL: INVEST 94L - Discussion
Finally got some rain out this thing! Not even an inch, but we need whatever we can get.
