Towers starting to wrap counter clockwise.
Updrafts are going to push out any shear and create an anticyclone.
850mb vort has strengthened considerably.

Let’s see if it can handle the onslaught of northerly shear it should be hit with tomorrow as the Texas death ridge over Northern Mexico strengthens and drifts north overnight. Looks like the GFS shows 40K+.

No surprise there is a decent area of vorticity tonight, the GFS shows this well and also shows it weakening tomorrow as it moves inland and gets hit with the shear.

Lol. Stop.. none of the models even remotely showed this extent of development let alone just some incraased vorticity..

A lot of people are not going to be happy if they wake up to a tropical depression coming ashore without word from the NHC. Especially in Panama City but I'm not so sure it is going to come ashore that quickly.

Starting to see radar indicated showers moving south on the west side of the circulation.

Should have said closer to the center of circulation.

Radar velocities slowly increasing, up to at least 55 mph

This is a very interesting, unexpected and rapid development...very impressive organization with nice banding. It very much fits the theme that we're getting to the time of the year that things find a way to go.

Dry northerly shear is going to send this little critter through the wood chipper tomorrow.

I agree on the shear but it sure is an interesting, even if likely transient, feature.

It's fighting dry air on north side of coc per radar. Nice band on west side wrapping in. Definitely an invest, 65 miles SW of me!

Not impossible we see a brief TC develop out of this. Reminds me of TS Emily in 2017 that formed quite literally out of nowhere in the GOMEX overnight.

Looking at radar velocities this could be a minimal tropical storm but if this moves inland there may be ground truth to at least a depression
