Odile Remnants in the GOM?
The GFS seems to be hinting that remnants of Odile will enter the Gulf in the next day or two...

I can't find any evidence of Odile remnants reaching the Gulf. Can't track the vorticity toward the Gulf in either the GFS or Euro. GFS does have a hurricane hitting New Orleans in early October, though.

Re: Odile Remnants in the GOM?
I have wondered too. We have had 4.95' of rain in Spring (just north of Houston) and radar indicates more on the way overnight Boy I can't wait for THAT commute tomorrow. It does appear a lot of this moisture is moving offshore Louisiana.

Re: Odile Remnants in the GOM?
About the only thing *vaguely* trackable in last night's model runs was a piece of H50 vorticity being sheared away from Odile's mid level remnants and getting pulled SE by a short wave trough, which eventually carves out a brief (positively tilted) cut off low over north Florida and along the SE seaboard on Saturday. This is the parent feature that will be responsible for spinning up a baroclinic trough or low to our east (which is being discussed in another thread) starting late tomorrow night. Eventually the surface and upper level features are forecast to lift off pretty rapidly to the NE by Sunday.

It appears that's there some sort of circulation (mid-level or otherwise) off the FL West Coast, noticing that echoes north of the Tampa Bay area are heading west into the gulf while those south are heading east onshore.
