Wasn't expecting that lol. It will defnitly be nice to get model plots running on it.

Would we expect the NHC to provide an "Atlantic Tropical Weather Outlook" today mentioning this area then, even though they don't start issuing this product until tomorrow (June 1st)?

I would not expect anything until tomorrow,but maybe a Special TWO if things evolve more rapidly than expected.

I don't have my map up. Is this the remnants of what used to be Barbara?

its the combination of Barbara and another disturbance

What a joke. That is absolutely Barbara.

Be careful now. Unless you have some proof that it maintained a well defined surface circulation, this is the remnants of Barbara.

Even a tropical storm can relocate, I can’t see why a disturbance cannot.

If you are saying it is a disturbance then we agree this cannot be Barbara then. If at any point in the past 24 hours Barbara did not meet the qualifications of a tropical cyclone, then it cannot keep its designation of 02E (Barbara). It must get a new designation in the Atlantic basin.

yeah watch the the energy/ wave in the carribean moving nw that should move into the southern gulf about the time things come together in the models.

We have criticism from both sides. On the one hand some of us think keeping Barbara alive was a bad call, and now some of us think Barbara should have been kept alive. The NHC makes the calls for this, and I believe they do the best they can. In this particular case they searched like crazy for any evidence of a closed circulation before ending Barbara.

Regardless this is a good time to remind everyone that providing an opinion is certainly ok, as long as it does not attack anyone and is respectful in nature.


Thanks.

Bottom line we have 90L and the 2013 season is starting out interesting. It will be fun to see which models correctly forecast its progress.

I'd be thrilled to get a couple days of nice rain out of it...as Panamatropics stated yesterday, the lawns all have "cotton mouths" up here in NW Florida. Bring on the rain...

[dexterlabio]

"Rebirth" of dead tropical cyclones in the gulf from EPAC is already too mainstream for me lol... Now we will see if Barbara's remnants will grow as strong as it was off Mexico or will be a weaker version in the gulf coast...

Yes waiting to see what happens for sure . Maybe this will be the tail of whats to come this season in the gulf . I remember the few years past that when they got into the gulf they did not act like they should have.

Totally agree with this. Rainfall would be beneficial for those of us in North Florida. No rain to speak of for weeks, and this could surely do the trick if it headed to the Northern Gulf Coast.

Unreal, remnants of Barbara gets an invest number and they take down the floater image. Just great
