Gulf
There's been activity off the Texas coast for the past 24 hours. But, shear may be to strong right now.
Anyone been watching it?

I have been paying attention to it, but I agree that the shear is too strong. If you look at a loop pay attention to the clouds being blown south.

This is my 500th post this hurricane season with the word shear in it.

Circulation center just inland MX/TX border?
Not sure if it's a low level, mid level, or upper level, but the Brownsville radar clearly shows a circulation just south of the Rio Grande over extreme NE Mexico. Any ideas?

The showers and thunderstorms in the SW Gulf/South Texas area will probably move eastward as the fronts come down over the next 4 or 5 days...they may (or may NOT!) be part of any potential mix for something in the far eastern Gulf or south Florida, but as for those of us from New Orleans westward, the bliss continues! We're in for some more excellent fall weather as these pronounced CONUS troughs continue to drop the cool stuff south through next weekend. IMHO, things could get interesting for us going into early October though, because this very progressive pattern will likely have run it's course.

The area in the western GOM is being enhanced by a ridge which is pumping in moisture from the Pacific and is a left over trough. This area could, repeat could become an area of concern early next week and we will all have to just watch it in the meantime.

Hey Lindaloo, sorry I never saw it. I got so caught up in trying to defend myself with some unreasonable posters that I have pretty much thrown in the towel over there. I see posts that I disagree with all the time but leave them alone to prevent flame wars but this is not the response you get from alot of those over there. They have to begin with -removed- accusations and other names if they happen to disagree with you rather than just simply posting the facts as to why they see it differently. I saw a link to this web site somwhere and started checking it out to see if it was any better and it seems it is.

Dean you found a new world in terms of message boards is concerned because in storm2k you wont see that kind of posting nor bashing as here we are in a family and friend enviroment as you may haved seen we haved great debates when Isabel was out there between mets in a proffesional manner without bashing each other .

Hey great Cycloneye, that's what I've noticed. Have you seen the latest run by AVN? It's developing a wave into a TC with it taking the low road near 10n 40w in 5 days. I know it's likley to change if it even develops but thought it interesting. I need to go look at some other models to see if they are doing anything likewise.
It is also trying to close of a low in the BOC in 5-6 days, that could come true if this convection persists down there.

Dean,
This is a extremely well moderated board. There are several professional mets who post here regularly as well, along with quite a few extremely knowledgeable amatuers. Bashing and flaming is not tolerated, at all. You'll feel very comfortable here. TWC board is barely a notch above the GoPBI board.
