Besides the MLC off the FLA coast I have noticed another swirl moving SW off of W FLA coast.

I see a little area of storms... Maybe it will hold together and give us some rain!! When is the last time it has rained? I was looking forward to a busy GOM season... Maybe next year... :roll:

You didn't get rain on your side of town over the weekend? My area, far Southeast Houston got pouned by Severe T-Storms 3 days str8. After seeing the destuction of Charley I really don't want to see a Hurricane here in Houston. Thats coming from someone who just a few weeks ago was -removed- a Hurricane here. Add to that the steady disappointment of Storms teasing us only to turn left or right at the last minute. I give up. LOL.

Surface pressures are still pretty high in the east gulf 30.06 at the 42036 station. Quite a lot of upper level shear as well. Maybe something will work its way down to the surface over time though.

We got some rain over the weekend, but really not enough.. I think it might have rained over night on Friday night, but other than that... nada... I have to keep watering the plants so they dont shrivel up... I did notice on Accuweather that we are supposed to get another cold front in the area next week sometime and make it like it was a few weeks ago... lows in the mid 60's and highs in the mid 80's... I know its a long way out, but there is my hope..! That site forecasted the cold front that came through a few weeks ago, 2 weeks out! So I am going to stick with their forecast.. lol... :lol:

We've had a few showers this week, but not much to speak of.
