I can not see a circulation with ex-td2, not saying there isn't one I just don't see it. Is there still some circulation to it. It looks elongated

I don't even care if this develops now. It's going to fail in comparison to what TD 3 could be down the road!!! :eek:

It most likely will, but even still, it needs to watched with the warm water of the GOM and the size of the system (small ones can explode rapidly).

I wouldn't give up yet on 91L

esp. if you have had that much experience, no system with this amount of thunderstorm activity, and banding, just because of some northerly shear, cannot be written off by no means, remember this system was down to a couple showers 3 days ago.

I keep trying to find the circulation on this... and I'm just not seeing any. It looks like it's got a nice curve to it- and the curve is being built up somewhat... but I'm just not seeing circulation.

Am I blind?

I like my crow with barbecue. Recon has confirmed West winds at 32 knots and a very tight small ciruclation as Nimbus has said. Look for a call on this one by 5pm.

It appears that the optimal surface wind patterns for former TD2 is not there. There is a low, although weak, over south Louisiana that is having some disruption of the surface winds. Then with TD3 looming behind it, this could have some effect as well.
