I don't know what you may believe but I think if you look at the link above you may notice a circulation, don't know in what levels, over the northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. Comments are very welcome!!! :roll:

There has been discussion here and the Tropical Prediction Center has been saying the cloudiness and thunderstorms over the northwestern Caribbean Sea and southeastern Gulf of Mexico is associated with an upper level low pressure area... that has some potential of becoming a mid and/or surface low with time.

Surface obs show easterly flow throughout the area.

I believe the circulation you're seeing is in the m-lvls, near 500mb.

Well, I said "circulation", and didn't say "surface circulation".
