A Quick Developer?

#1 Postby Dean4Storms » Thu Jul 08, 2004 10:44 am

The convection that began last night right south of my place over the NE GOM has continued into this morning. Looks like it is in an area of possible development. Will have to wait and see if it persists and if a low can form in the convection.

Looks interesting but the NHC has not say anything about it, if it persist 24 hours more then I think it will be something to watch although it is very close to land.

We are talking about something in the Gulf of Mexico and as you can read in the TWO they don't mention anything about the GOM, just the disturbance SW of Bermuda, the other area East of Bermuda and a tropical wave.

You are confused, the NHC is talking about the system out in the Atlantic and I'm mentioning the new blow up of convection in the NE Gulf of Mexico.

I noticed how much rain was there this morning, a lot more than I thought based on sat pics. Seems to be nearly stationary. Down by Cuba on WV imagery there is a swirl, and this must mean an upper level low (?) which should be causing shear. However on shear tendency maps there isn't much shear in the NE gulf and it isn't increasing. Whatever this storm might be in terms of structure, its sure to send out outflow boundaries and increase rainfall today along the florida coast.

Just my amateur thoughts.

Are the conditions in the upper atmosphere that create a short wave conducive to TC formation? Just curious. If they are, then TC formation would be quicker than if a shortwave condition is from upper level low vortices (or something) which would not be conducive to TC formation....

It looks to be weakening a little. I think 96L is enough for now. Still, Alex and Bonnie couldn't hurt ;)

Wouldn't be surprised to see this upgraded to a TD as early as tonight. I don't see this getting much past moderate TS, if that.

Are you referring to the GOM or Atlantic disturbance?

We shoulud be watching the area near Bermuda, the storms in the northern gulf don't look too promising and are mainly being enhanced by daytime heating.

The stuff in the Gulf is typical summertime junk. Watch SW of Bermuda.
