The Gulf system is interesting

#1 Postby Matt-hurricanewatcher » Tue May 31, 2005 10:54 pm

There appears to be a low pressure at around 30 north/87 west. It appears to be a lopsided system. Most of the weather is on the eastern side. Alison like? We will see if it can get that convection over its center before it moves in.

Its just starting to get its act together just South of Mobile.Can you imagine if it was in the central or southern gulf what this system would do over warm water.

Looks at the shape of it. It looks really good. If it where in the middle of the Gulf with the 80 to 85 waters you would not be saying that.


It has formed some banding but it has as of this moment a not a very good central dense overcast.

Moisture Invasion

It was rocking down here at northern Broward County, needed the rain. At least it's not as dry as last year.

Here in Miami-Dade we had a few showers in the morning and that was it, I just got 0.04" of rain. We always get less affected by these type of systems than the rest of Florida.

What you are seeing near Mobile is the ULL that went by here Sunday. It is not to the surface.

One clue to it becoming something is the outflow/cloud fan that is forming. With the banding like convection. Maybe not to the surface but if it where in the middle of the Gulf this could be a Bill like storm.

This will be nothing more than a rain producer.

That's true, I was watching in the news the problems people had to confront during the Memorial Day Weekend when coming from the keys with the smoke from the wildfires. Rain is needed!

It's not going to be anything if it doesn't have a SURFACE circulation. Period. The End.

There is absolutely NOTHING organized here.

brent is correct, this is nothing more than a trough with shortwaves rotating around the base giving us all the rain. 2 nights in a row we were awaken with heavy t-storms as these waves come through flroida.
