Is the term "wobble crap" an official meteorological term? :hehe:

if this does become a storm, that means a forecast path will come out today, from what i gather, it is a 50 50 of curving or going in the gulf, cant wait to see what the nhc thinks

It's not an eye - it is the center of circulation.

Well we know that it's just impressive to see in a system not even classified yet...means the circulation center is very well defined.

It's moving W/WNW/NW/N and back and forth. GAK!!!!

The latest frame was a jog back left.

I'll wait for recon.

I'm still amazed that one spun up this quickly.

not and un is a double negative, so that means it is not normal?

Oh man!!! The timing couldn't be worse for this storm!!

A developing tropical system southeast of Cape Canaveral is beginning to capture NASA's attention today. The National Hurricane Center is closely monitoring the tropical wave for potential formation into a tropical storm later today. A NASA spokesman says the agency is "starting to keep an eye on it, but it's not a threat yet" for Discovery sitting on launch pad 39B.

It has the bomber look - but it's probably just coincidence because of its size...

It's gonna be expensive if they have to move it back into the hanger or building what ever it's called.

Looks like 90L is moving westward and still has what looks like an "eye" in it's center. Hey I'm just calling it like I see it.
