No one needs to get excited, but the POLAR LOW is mving southward along with its front.

Any low spinning looks cool even if it is a cold core or polar right Johnnathan?

Im not -removed- but this low is becoming cut off from its parent front AND it is drifting southward toward warmer water. I know the chances of tropical development are slim at best but it will be interesting to see how this system evolves.

7:05 AM TWD:

ELSEWHERE...998 MB LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS CENTERED NEAR 30N13W...ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT EXTEND SOUTHWARD INTO THE AREA ALONG 34N29W AND CONTINUES SOUTHEASTWARD AS A DISSIPATING FRONT NEAR 24N18W 23N28W AND THEN CONTINUES WEST AS A DISSIPATING COLD FRONT TO NEAR 23N39W. THIS FRONT REMAINS FAIRLY DRY.

Cyclonaut, it's still there. Look on the east part of the screen. It's near the Canary Islands, around 31N 13 west.

IN THE FAR E
ATLC...999 MB DEEP-LAYERED CUTOFF LOW IS CENTERED NEAR 30N18W
WITH A DISSIPATING COLD FRONT FROM 30N15W THRU THE ERN CANARY
ISLANDS TO 23N20W. VERY COLD AIR ALOFT IS LEADING TO
COLD-AIR INSTABILITY SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS NEAR THE
CORE OF THE CYCLONE AND ALONG THE FRONT N OF 27N. THE LOW IS
EXPECTED TO MOVE WSWWD THEN TURN MORE TO THE S OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS WHILE SLOWLY FILLING.

No chance at all to see Paula here.

FARTHER E...STRONG CUTOFF DEEP-LAYERED 999 MB LOW
PERSISTS IN THE NE ATLC NEAR 29N20W DRIFTING SE WITH GALE FORCE WINDS ALONG THE NW SIDE OF THE LOW. COOL UPPER TEMPERATURES COMBINED WITH A WARMER THAN AVERAGE OCEAN IS ASSISTING WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWER DEVELOPMENT N OF 24N E OF 20W WITH SOME RARE ISOLATED THUNDERSHOWERS IN THE NW CANARY ISLANDS TODAY. LOW IS EXPECTED TO MOVE SSE TOWARD WESTERN SAHARA AND SLOWLY FILL FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS....BRINGING A CHANCE OF RAIN TO AREAS IN NW AFRICA THAT GENERALLY DON'T SEE MUCH RAIN AT ALL.

No Paula but rain will fall in the Sahara Desert.

I see it now & saw it yesterday too.The reason I thought I had'nt seen it was because it was'nt all that impressive to mee.Sure does'nt look anything like a cane but it is/was a healthy low none the less!!

It surely looks-like a healthy low but I think it would have a least a chance to develop if it moves toward the SW, but is moving in a 90º angle to the east.

A cool extratropial tropical cyclone look a like!!!
